Phases of Matter
Solid, liquid, gas
What are the three main states of matter?
This is the change from a solid to a liquid.
What is melting?
The organelle in which photosynthesis occurs.
What is the chloroplast?
The main organelle involved in cellular respiration.
What are mitochondria?
The energy-storing molecule formed during photosynthesis.
What is glucose?
This phase of matter has a fixed shape and volume.
What is a solid?
This is the process where a gas turns into a liquid.
What is condensation?
To store chemical energy for future use.
What is the purpose of photosynthesis?
Oxygen and glucose.
What are the reactants for cellular respiration?
This moves biotic matter into abiotic matter.
What is cellular respiration?
The particles in this phase have the most energy.
What is a gas?
What is deposition?
What is chlorophyll?
They are opposites.
What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Greater than 1.0 g/cm3.
What is the density of a substance that will sink in water?
In this phase of matter, particles are closely packed but can move around each other.
What is a liquid?
This process occurs to the water in clothing that is hung on a clothesline to dry.
What is evaporation?
Carbon dioxide and water.
What are the reactants for photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide
What is the gas produced by cellular respiration?
When it increases, molecular motion increases.
What is temperature?
The particles in this phase are very spread out and move freely, allowing it to fill any container.
What is a gas?
This is what happens to the temperature of a mixture of ice and water when energy is added, as long as there is still ice in the water.
What is, "the temperature does not change?"
The plant part primarily responsible for photosynthesis.
What are the leaves?
They perform photosynthesis AND cellular respiration.
What are plants? (or algae or producers)
From a warmer substance to a cooler substance.
What is the direction of thermal energy transfer?
