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

These perform the process of photosynthesis (Bonus for more than 1)

What are plants, bacteria, algae, photosynthetic organisms.

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

Increased trees means that there is more photosynthesis occurring. More photosynthesis means there is more food for animals, which means that more animals can live. What is the next step?

What is more carbon dioxide produced.

200
The pigment that captures sunlight for photosynthesis?
What is chlorophyll?
200

What is the term we use for Carbon Dioxide, Water in this process?

What are the inputs of photosynthesis?

300
The place carbon dioxide comes from before entering the leaf.
What is the atmosphere?
300

What is the term we use for Glucose and Oxygen in this process?

What are the inputs of cellular respiration?

300

This cycle that keeps the amounts of carbon dioxide and oxygen fairly constant in the atmosphere

What is the cycle made by photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

300
The city hall of the cell. It directs traffic and tells the rest of the cell what to do.
What is the nucleus?
300

What is the term we use for these in this process Glucose and Oxygen?

What are the outputs of Photosynthesis?

400

This object needs to be present for photosynthesis to occur even if CO2 and Water are around.

What is the Sun?

400

What is the term we use for Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP in this process?

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

Does energy flow through a system or cycle?

What is flows?

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?
500
The holes in the bottom of leaves through which carbon dioxide enters the leaf.
What are stomata?
500
The energy currency of the cell
What is ATP
500
This process will screech to a halt if Sacramento goes into a major drought in the summer?
What is photosynthesis?
500
Do the atoms that make up carbon dioxide, water, and sugar flow or cycle through a system?
What is cycle?
500
Carbon Dioxide + Water ---> Sugar + Oxygen
What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
