Chloroplast
It is a stack of thylakoids
What is a granum?
It occurs in this organelle
What is the mitochondrion?
The purpose of photosynthesis is to make this
What is glucose?
Plants take this in during photosynthesis and use it to make food
What is sunlight?
It is the process in which bacteria(or lightning) fixes nitrogen to a usable form
What is nitrogen fixation?
This is embedded in the chloroplast
What is chlorophyll?
This, CO2 and H2O are the products of cell respiration
What is ATP?
Photosynthesis occurs in this organelle
What is the chloroplast?
These break organisms down when they die, and return carbon to the soil and air
What are decomposers?
What is denitrification?
This is converted to chemical energy during photosynthesis
What is sunlight?
It is the purpose of cell respiration
What is to provide energy for the cell?
This gives plants their green color
What is chlorophyll?
In this process, burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide
What is combustion?
Plants take in nitrates; animals eat the plants
Assimilation
In the presence of this and chlorophyll, light dependent photosynthesis occurs
What is light?
Cells break this down to release ATP
What is glucose?
These are on the right side of the reaction
What are products?
Animals release this during cell respiration
What is carbon dioxide?(CO2)
In this process, decomposers return nitrogen to the soil from waste or dead matter
What is ammonification?
This is the semifluid matrix
What is the stroma?
This and glucose are the reactants for cellular respiration
What is oxygen?(O2)
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their food using light, water, and this
What is CO2?
The Carbon Cycle moves this through the environment
What is carbon?
Bacteria turn ammonia to nitrates that plants can use
What is nitrification?
