Before Photosynthesis
The organelles that performs cellular respiration in ALL plant and animal cells.
cytoplasm and mitochondria?
It converts food into energy, allowing us to think, breathe, and move. Basically, we would not be alive without it.
What is cellular respiration?
A pigment that captures sunlight?
What is chlorophyll?
This is where water enters the plants.
What are roots? or What is the ground?
The process cells use to take food energy and turn it into ATP. is called........
Cellular Respiration
How could we increase the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere for breathing?
What is planting more trees?
The energy produced in cellular respiration and is used for all cell functions
What is ATP?
The place carbon dioxide comes from before entering the leaf.
What is the atmosphere?
What are the two things needed (input) for cellular respiration?
Glucose and Oxygen
The cycle that keeps the amounts of carbon dioxide and oxygen fairly constant in the atmosphere
What is the carbon cycle?
Cellular respiration without using oxygen
What is anaerobic?
The energy conversion from sun to sugar in photosynthesis
Why is light to chemical?
Where do plants get their energy from?
sunlight
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?
The holes in the bottom of leaves through which carbon dioxide enters the leaf.
What are stomata?
which one happens first, breathing or cellular respiration? Explain your choice
oxygen needs to betaken in before cellular respiration can occur. Carbon dioxide is produced after cellular respiration. Breathing is the exchange of gases before and after cellular respiration
This process will decrease if an area goes into a major drought in the summer?
What is photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide + Water ---> Sugar + Oxygen
What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
