Nutrition
Living things require _____ molecules for nutrition.
Organic
What are the products of this reaction?
CO2 + 2 H2O ← 2 O2 + CH4
CO2 and 2 H2O are the products
What is a cell?
A cell is the basic unit of life that makes up all living organisms.
What types of molecules are living things made of?
Organic and inorganic molecules
Cells with a mitochondria and a chloroplast have _____ nutrition.
Autotrophic
What is the complete chemical reaction of cell respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O
What is the difference between a prokaryotic and a eukaryotic cell?
Prokaryotic cells do not have a nuclear membrane, and eukaryotic cells do.
What kind of fungi is multi-cellular?
Mushrooms!
Autotrophic plants get inorganic molecules for photosynthesis from the air (CO2), water (H2O), and _______ _____ from the soil.
Mineral salts.
What are the inorganic molecules needed for photosynthesis?
6 molecules of CO2 and 6 molecules of H2O
What are the two kingdoms of life that are unicellular?
Monera and Protozoane
Bacteria that cause illnesses in humans are _______ (nutrition)
Heterotrophic
______ is the only kingdom of life with both Autotrophic and Heterotrophic species.
Monera (bacteria) kingdom
How are the chemical reactions of cell respiration and photosynthesis related?
They involve the same molecules.
Photosynthesis is how Autotrophic cells create their own organic molecules from inorganic molecules, and cell respiration is how the cell receives energy.
What are the two kingdoms of life that are both multi and unicellular?
Fungi and Algae
If a plant lives in an area with insufficient inorganic molecules to perform photosynthesis, where do they obtain the necessary molecules?
From eating other organisms!
Venus fly traps are an example of this.
Where does the energy come from, chemically, when an organism ingests glucose?
The energy comes from the breaking of the Carbon-Carbon bonds during cell respiration.
Why do all types of organisms need to perform cell respiration in the mitochondria?
To have energy.
What structures can be found in a cell of a Autotrophic Eukaryote?
- A nuclear membrane
- DNA
- Mitochondria
- Chloroplast
What is an example of a uni-cellular fungi?
Yeast
