Cellular Respiration
Big Picture

Photosynthesis
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
A molecule that captures sunlight?
What are pigments?
100
The organelle in which photosynthesis occurs.
What are Chloroplasts?
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 effect of planting more trees in an area?
200
The pigment that captures sunlight for photosynthesis?
What is chlorophyll?
200

Carbon Dioxide, Water

What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

300
Glucose and Oxygen
What are the inputs of cellular respiration?
300
The 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

Glucose and Oxygen.

What are the products of Photosynthesis?

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

The place where all energy begins or starts from.

What is the sun?

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 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

This has to occur in order for ADP to become ATP.

What is absorb energy and gain a phosphate group? 

500
Carbon Dioxide + Water ---> Sugar + Oxygen
