What is photosynthesis?

Capturing the sun's light energy to make sugar/glucoseWhat is photosynthesis?

100

Who does cellular respiration?

All living organisms do this process

100

What are the reactants of a chemical reaction?

The parts that go into a reaction; what the reaction needs.

100

Sugar/ Glucose is an example of which biomolecule?

Carbohydrates

100

What did we wear when doing the experiments today and Tuesday?

Goggles

200

Where does photosynthesis take place?

The chloroplast

200

Where does cellular respiration take place?

Mitochondria

200

What are the products of a chemical reaction?

The items that are made or produced by a chemical reaction

200

Why is photosynthesis so important?

It produces sugar that organisms need to make energy and produces oxygen for organisms to breathe. 

(100 points per answer)

200

What color was the chemical we used in the photosynthesis lab AND what color did it turn when we blew into the solution? 

(100 points per response)

It was blue and it turned yellow
300

What are the reactants of photosynthesis (100 points per reactant)?

1. Carbon dioxide

2. Water

3. Sunlight

300

What are the products of cellular respiration? (100 points per product)

1. Carbon dioxide

2. Water

3. Energy/ ATP

300

Since the reactants of photosynthesis are similar to the products of cellular respiration and the products of photosynthesis are similar to the reactants of cellular respiration, these two equations are called?

Opposite reactions

300

Why is cellular respiration so important?

It is how all organisms make energy from food. 

300

What were the ingredients we added to the test tubes in the cellular respiration lab?

(100 points per ingredient)

Sugar (in some), Warm Water, and Yeast

400

Organisms capable of making its own food from non-living substances using light are called?

Autotrophs

400

What are the reactants of cellular respiration (200 points per reactant)?

1. Oxygen

2. Sugar/Glucose

400

Label the following products and reactants of the "reaction"

Flour + Sugar + Milk + Eggs + Heat -> Cake

Reactants: Flour + Sugar + Milk + Eggs + Heat

Products: Cake

400

What is an example of an autotroph?

Plant, some bacteria, phytoplankton, etc. 

400

What gas was produced by the yeast?

Carbon dioxide

500

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

CO2 + H2O + energy (sunlight) -> C6H12O6 +O2

Carbon dioxide + water + energy -> sugar/glucose and oxygen
500

What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?

glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy/ATP

C6H12O6 + 6O→ 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy/ATP

500

What happens if one of the reactants for chemical reaction is missing?

The reaction cannot happen

500

What came first: organisms that could do photosynthesis or the atmosphere as we know it? 

Photosynthetic organisms who made the atmosphere as we know it

500

The chemical used in the photosynthesis experiment changed color because of a reaction with a gas we exhale (breathe out) because of cellular respiration. What is this gas?

Carbon dioxide
