photosynthesis
what is photosynthesis?
the process in which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create their own food.
what does an animal take from photosynthesis
glucose/Sugar or food
whats ONE product of photosynthesis
oxygen, sugar, ect
where does the light energy come from in photosynthesis
the sun
what does photosynthesis do that helps us live?
it gives us oxygen, it can give us food, or help our environment.
how does a plant get water during photosynthesis
their roots
true or false...animals are a huge part of helping to repeat the process of photosynthesis
true
what is glucose?
sugar
whats a reactant of photosynthesis?
water, carbon dioxide, ect
what would life look like without plants and photosynthesis
everything would eventually be gone and the earth would just look like an inhabitable planet. conclusion, there would be no life!
where is the sunlight stored inside of a plant?
the chloroplast
true or false...animals like carnivores do not support photosynthesis at all
false
how does oxygen get to us during photosynthesis?
the plant releases it
when a plant gets water or carbon dioxide, what reactant mixes with one (hint: s_n_ig_ht
sunlight
What's a way you can contribute to photosynthesis or the environment?
recycling, not littering, breathing out carbon dioxide, ect.
whats chlorophyll
a compound that gives plants their color
if animals were Abel to live without oxygen and other things given to them by photosynthesis, would the environment still be healthy or would it be unhealthy?
the environment would not be balanced/unhealthy
what is the glucose formula?
Hint: (C6_12_6) hydrogen and oxygen are missing
C6H12O6
does a plant absorb or release its water
absorb
if you eat part of a plant (ex. picking berries and eating them) does that stop the plant from growing as a whole?
no, plants can still keep growing as long as you don't pick any vital parts of the plant.
name the stages of photosynthesis in order
light dependent stage, Calvin cycle/light independent stage.
whats the main thing animals contribute to photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide gas
what is the oxygen formula?
(O2)
what I the formula for both water and carbon dioxide (hint: carbon dioxide:C_ _ ) (hint: water: _2O
carbon dioxide CO2, water H2O
name 1 plant that does not need photosynthesis
ghost pipe, American cancer root, dodder, spotted coral root, ect.
