What is the name of the molecule with this chemical formula: C6H12O6
Glucose
What is the name of the molecule with this chemical formula: CO2
Carbon dioxide
This is where water enters the plants.
roots / ground
What is Cellular Respiration?
The process cells use to turn food (glucose) into ATP for energy.
sugar (glucose)
What are the reactants of photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide, Water, Sunlight
Which process occurs in the chloroplast and needs energy from the sun?
Photosynthesis
This is where plants absorb carbon dioxide from.
air / atmosphere
What are the reactants of cellular respiration?
Glucose and Oxygen
Cellular respiration
What are the products of Photosynthesis?
Glucose and Oxygen
How is glucose useful to plants?
It provides energy for growth and reproduction.
Why is photosynthesis so important?
- provides glucose for plants and animals to use for food
- produces oxygen that animals need to breathe
What are the products of cellular respiration?
Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP
Why do all animals need to eat other organisms, put plants do not?
Plants make their own sugar, but animals must get it from other organisms
What do plants depend on from animals?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
What 2 molecules are needed by cells to make ATP?
oxygen and glucose
What are stomata?
Tiny holes in the bottom of leaves where gas exchange occurs (CO2 in, O2 out)
What is ATP?
Chemical energy for cells to use
In the process of photosynthesis, sunlight is converted into _____ energy
chemical
What is the name of the pigment that absorbs light energy?
Chlorophyll
How do plants and animals depend on each other.
Plants need CO2 from animals. Animals need glucose and oxygen from plants.
