Big Picture
100
This type of energy is required for photosynthesis.
What is Solar Energy (Sunlight)?
100
This is the gas needed by plants to preform photosynthesis.
What is CO2?
100
Glucose is this commonly know type of molecule.
What is a sugar?
100
These three organelles are found only in plants.
What are large vacuoles, cell wall, and chloroplasts?
100
This is what plants provide to other organisms.
What is energy?
200
The organelle where photosynthesis occurs.
What is the chloroplast?
200
This is the liquid plants need to preform photosynthesis.
What is H2O?
200
Plants produce glucose for this reason.
What is a food source?
200
If an organism automatically makes it's own food source, it is called this.
What is an autotroph?
Auto-Automatic
Troph- How an organism obtains food
200
Without plants, this would happen to an ecosystem.
Everything would die, no way to convert sunlight into an energy source.
300
The green pigment in chloroplasts needed for photosynthesis to occur.
What is chlorophyll?
300
C6H12O6 is the chemical formula for this source of energy.
What is glucose?
300
Multiple glucose molecules linked together form this type of molecule.
What is starch? dj
300
If an organism produces it's own food source it is known as.
What is a producer?
300
Name this organelle.
What is a chloroplast? dj
400
Photosynthesis occurs within the chloroplasts. This is the location on the plant where photosynthesis occurs. (Stem, roots, leafs, flowers)
What are the leafs?
400
The gas produced in photosynthesis that benefits other organisms such as humans
What is Oxygen (O2)?
400
Difference between upper and lower epidermis
Lower epidermis has stomata - DJ
400
An organism that uses sunlight to synthesize sugar.
What is a photosynthetic organism?
400
Chloroplasts are a natural way to convert sunlight into energy. This man made piece of technology uses similar techniques to produce energy.
What is a solar panel?
500
These are the two chemicals needed for photosynthesis.
What are CO2 and H2O ? (Sunlight is the energy supplied)
500
Fill in the Blanks CxHXOX
What is C6H12O6?
T
500
This is the life process that uses glucose to make energy.
What is Cellular Respiration?
Plants make glucose during photosynthesis, they break it down for energy during cellular respiration.
500
Plants use both of these life processes to make energy.
What is photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
500
These organisms consume plants for energy.
What are consumers/herbivores/omnivores?
