True or False: Energy can be created, destroyed, or transformed.
False. Energy can not be created nor destroyed only transformed.
True or False: Plants perform Photosynthesis
True. Only plants can perform photosynthesis
What does the chloroplast do?
Photosynthesis
What does the mitochondria do?
Cellular Respiration
The source of light energy on earth
The sun
The organelle where photosynthesis takes place
Chloroplast
The type of cell's where you would find chloroplasts
Plant Cells
The type of cells that contain mitochondria
All/most Eukaryotic cells (Animal, Plant, Fungal, Protists)
How is chemical energy released?
When bonds between atoms are broken
The energy carrying molecule that is the product of Photosynthesis
Glucose
Chloroplasts contain membrane structures which are stacked together. What are these disks called?
Thylakoids
The mitochondria is often referred to as what? (Hint: there is a meme about this)
The powerhouse of the cell
The energy transformation that takes place during photosynthesis
Light energy from the sun to chemical energy In the form of glucose
The earliest organisms that performed photosynthesis
Cyanobacteria
Chloroplasts contain stacks of disks. What are these stacks called?
Grana
The energy Transformation that takes place during Cellular Respiration
Chemical energy in the form of glucose to chemical energy in the form of ATP
What is the chemical equation for Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H20 + SUNLIGHT ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
This theory describes how chloroplasts likely came to be
The endosymbiotic theory
