Plant Facts
General Sherman is considered to be...
The largest tree in the world by volume.
Plant use this form of energy to make glucose.
What is light energy.
Consists of simple and complex sugars like glucose.
Carbohydrates
The four main Earth spheres includes...
Atmosphere, Biosphere, Hydrosphere, and Geosphere
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen are all examples of what
Element or atom
The parts of a seed include
What are the embryo, endosperm and the seed coat.
The sun provides 2 main forms of energy: light and
Heat (thermal) energy
Made up of amino acid chains, this macromolecule helps repair tissues and power enzymes.
Protein
This process involves animals using oxygen and releasing CO2 into the atmosphere.
Respiration
Abiotic factors include all of the following except:
1) Sunlight
2) Heat
3) Bacteria
4) Rocks
3) Bacteria
The conversion of carbon dioxide, water and light into glucose and oxygen
What is photosynthesis
Solar panel.
These hydrophobic molecules store twice as much energy as carbohydrates.
Lipids
Using oil and coal to power machines increases the CO2 in the atmosphere, this process is called
Combustion/ Burning Fossil Fuel
The increase in average global temperatures.
Global Warming/ Climate change
Which biological molecules are found in a seed?
1. protein
2. carbon dioxide
3. lipids
4. oxygen
5. sunlight
6. carbohydrates
1.Protein, 3. Lipids, 6. Carbohydrates
The law of conservation states that
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transformed from one form to another
A nucleic acid composed of repeating nucleotides (Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine).
DNA
Ocean acidification involves carbon moving from which two spheres
Atmosphere and Hydrosphere
These gases help trap heat from the sun into our atmosphere.
Greenhouse gases: CO2, methane, Nitrous Oxide
The process that converts [light, water and CO2] into [oxygen and glucose] occurs in this part of the plant
The leaves (chloroplasts).
Where do molecules store their energy?
In their bonds (between the elements)
The process that involves breaking bonds with water in complex carbohydrates.
Hydrolysis
When the pH of the ocean decreases, marine animals can be prevented from forming their shells. Marine animals use this compound to make their shells.
Calcium carbonate.
This scale measures whether something is acidic or basic
