The gas needed for Photosynthesis
What is Carbon dioxide
A scientific theory that states that all living organisms are made up of cells, and that cells are the basic unit of life
What is Cell Theory
In this stage of cell division, chromosomes condense and align in the center of a dividing cell
What is Metaphase
Two men are in a desert. They both have backpacks on. One of the guys is dead. The guy who is alive has his backpack open and the guy who is dead has his backpack closed. What is in the dead man’s backpack?

B. Solar to Mechanical
C. Thermal to Solar
D. Solar to Chemical
D. Solar to Chemical
The energy required for photosynthesis
What is light energy
The process by which a cell replicates its chromosomes and then segregates them, producing two identical nuclei in preparation for cell division
What is Mitosis
The longest phase of the cell cycle
What is Interphase
I weaken all men for hours each day. I show you strange visions while you are away. I take you by night, by day take you back. None suffer to have me, but do from my lack. What am I?
What is Sleep

What is the equation of Photosynthesis?
What is carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen
The process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy
What is Photosynthesis
What stage of the cell cycle does this describe?
Chromatin has condensed into visible chromosomes. Nuclear envelope has disappeared and the nucleolus is no longer visible
What is Prophase

What is a Coffin
Keith has four aquatic plants of the same size and species. He submerges each plant in a seperate beaker filled with 200 mL of water. He then sets each beaker under a different intensity of light. Keith observes that, of the four plants, the plant in the beaker under the most intense light gives off the most gas bubbles in a 20 minute period.
Which gas is Keith most likely observing in the bubbles?
A. Oxygen
B. Nitrogen
C. Carbon Dioxide
D. Water
A. Oxygen
_____ and _____ are reactants of photosynthesis
A biological process that breaks down glucose and oxygen to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
