Energy
What is energy?
Energy is the ability to create change or do work.
Herbivores make their own food, carnivores eat meat and other things, and omnivores eat both plants and animals.
False, False, True.
What are the reactants and products of cellular respiration, and why do we do it?
Reactants: Glucose and Oxygen, Products: adenosine triphosphate (energy), carbon dioxide, and water. We do it to turn the reactants into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for our bodies to use.
Photosynthesis is the process for ____ to _____.
plants, make their own food.
What is potential and kinetic energy?
Potential energy is stored energy that could happen, and kinetic energy is the release of it, after potential energy.
The products of Cellular Respiration are exactly the same as the reactants of photosynthesis.
False! ATP is not a reactant of photosynthesis and one of our products is not sunlight!
Cellular respiration takes place in which cell?
The mitochondria. Yeah, I knew you were going to get that correct.
What are the reactants and products of photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight go in, and oxygen and glucose come out.
What are the 10 types of energy?
Potential, kinetic, mechanical, gravitational, electrical, light, thermal, sound, chemical, and nuclear. (There are more if you listed those as well!)
Anesodine triphosphate is the full length of ATP.
False. It is adenosine triphosphate.
What is the process of glucose getting broken down in the cytoplasm called?
Glycolysis. This is the first of three steps in the process of cellular respiration.
Where does photosynthesis take place?
In the chloroplasts.
What is chemical energy?
Chemical energy is when substances or products are released from a chemical reaction and turn into other substances.
Detritivores are at the bottom of the detritus food chain.
True.
What happens after the glucose is broken down in celluar respiration?
Certain molecules get send to the mitochondria, and get coverted in to two-carbon molecules. This starts something called the Krebs Cycle.
What does chlorophyll do in plants?
It absorbs light, usually through sunlight, and also gives the plant its green color with a pigment.
What is the energy transfer in a swinging pirate ship at an amusement park when it reaches the peak of its height?
The kinetic energy swinging to the top turns into potential gravitational energy when it could go down from there.
Decomposers can stop pollution.
Where does the energy enter in the last step of cellular respiration?
The electron transport chain.
