Biology Basics
This organelle in plants captures sunlight to produce glucose
What is a chloroplast
The organelle where cellular respiration primarily occurs.
What is the mitochondria?
The substances made in a reaction.
What is a product?
Plants make all the ___ we breathe and all the ___ we eat.
This simple carbohydrate is produced by plants during photosynthesis.
What is glucose?
The three main inputs required for photosynthesis.
What are carbon dioxide, water, and light energy?
CO2 + H2O + ATP
What are plants?
The gas released by plants as a biproduct of photosynthesis
What is oxygen?
The function of the mitochondion in both humans and cells.
What is cellular respiration?
Sunlight + H2O + CO2
What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

accept reasonable answers.
The primary pigment in plants that absorbs sunlight.
What is chlorophyll?
The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy.
What is cellular respiration?
Two or more substances combine before a chemical reaction.
What are reactants?
What are oxygen and carbon dioxide
The tiny openings on leaves that allow gas exchange.
What are stomata?
The molecule that stores energy produced during cellular respiration.
What is ATP?
C6H12O6 + O2
What are the products of photosynthesis?
The opposite of one another. One produces oxygen and sugar from carbon dioxide, water, and energy; the other produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy from sugar and oxygen.
