The Law of Conservation of Matter
Photosynthesis is considered a __________ __________ because the atoms in the reactants rearrange to form the products.
chemical reaction
What is Deforestation?
cutting down trees
Plants use ___________ _________ in photosynthesis and release it during cellular respiration.
carbon dioxide.
What is an incentive vs a consequence?
incentive = good
consequence = bad
In __________, carbon dioxide (CO₂) is used and oxygen (O₂) is produced.
photosynthesis
______________ is a major cause of tropical deforestation.
Agriculture
In ___________ ____________, oxygen (O₂) is used and carbon dioxide (CO₂) is produced.
cellular respiration
what are the 4 main macromoleclues?
Fiber, Glucose, Fat, Protein.
True or False: Agriculture is a major cause of tropical deforestation.
True
Plants use carbon dioxide in photosynthesis and release it during __________ ___________.
cellular respiration.
Decaying organisms release __________ gas, while consumers take in carbon through digestion.
carbon
Deforestation impacts ___________ ___________ by:
Increasing the amount of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere, which can disrupt the process.
cellular respiration
Which macromolecule plays a key role in regulating digestion and preventing constipation?
Fiber
Incentives vs. Consequences in Reducing Deforestation. give an example of a incentive vs a consequence.
....
Which macromolecule is essential for repairing and building body parts, providing structure, and is composed of amino acids?
Protein
Which macromolecule is crucial for storing energy for muscles, protecting organs, and regulating body temperature?
Fat
To accurately model the Law of Conservation of Matter in photosynthesis, ensure that the number and type of atoms on both sides of the equation are___________
balanced
Which macromolecule is the primary macromolecule used as the main source of fuel (energy) by the body?
Glucose
People are more likely to take action to stop deforestation if they have positive incentives (such as financial rewards or benefits) rather than just facing consequences (such as penalties or damage). Incentives can be more effective in encouraging sustainable practices and motivating behavioral change.
Name the 4 macromolecules and their functions.
Protein is essential for repairing and building body parts, providing structure, and is composed of amino acids.
Fiber plays a key role in regulating digestion and preventing constipation.
Fat is crucial for storing energy for muscles, protecting organs, and regulating body temperature.
Glucose is the primary macromolecule used as the main source of fuel (energy) by the body.
