Photosynthesis
100
The organelle where light is captured in a plant cell.
What is chloroplasts.
100
The organelle that performs cellular respiration in ALL plant and animal cells.
What are mitochondria?
100
It converts food into energy, allowing us to think, breathe, and move. Basically, we would not be alive without it.
What is cellular respiration?
100
The organelle in which photosynthesis occurs.
What are Chloroplasts?
200
This is where water enters the plants.
What are roots? or What is the ground?
200
The process cells use to take food energy and turn it into ATP.
What is Cellular Respiration?
200
The pigment that captures sunlight for photosynthesis?
What is chlorophyll?
200

Carbon Dioxide, Water

What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

300
The place carbon dioxide comes from before entering the leaf.
What is the atmosphere?
300
Glucose and Oxygen
What are the inputs of cellular respiration?
300

Glucose and Oxygen.

What are the products of Photosynthesis?

400
Photosynthesis converts sun energy into food, making energy available for plants and animals. It also makes Oxygen, which we need to breathe.
Why is photosynthesis so important?
400
Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP
What are the outputs of cellular respiration?
400
An increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would increase the amount of this process happening.
What is photosynthesis?
400

It is not a physical input to photosynthesis, but is required for the reaction to proceed. Because of this, we write this form of energy above the arrow in the chemical equation for photosynthesis.

What is sunlight?

Carbon Dioxide + Water ---> Sugar + Oxygen
