Plant Structure
The part of the plant has the stomata, chloroplast, and guard cell
What are leaves?
The light energy that goes into a plant comes from this.
What is the sun?
Anything that goes into a system.
What are reactants/inputs?
The name of the round green structures in the plant cells.
What is chloroplast?
This is released through the stomata in the leaves and into the air for us to breathe. We breathe this in.
What is oxygen?
The environmental condition that causes chloroplast to move and the stomata to open or close
What is light?
The water enters the plants through these parts of a plant.
What are the roots?
Anything that comes out of a system (or something formed during a chemical reaction).
What are products/outputs?
The gas that enters the plant through the leaves.
What is carbon dioxide?
Compounds found in living things, such as fat, carbs, and protein.
What are biomolecules?
Openings in the leaf that let gases in and out of the plant
What is stomata?
These are the inputs of photosynthesis.
What are sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide?
The process in which one or more substances are converted to one or more substances
The gases that exit a plant through the leaves.
What are water vapor and oxygen?
The 3 main biomolecules (food molecules) that we get from eating plants.
What are fats (lipids), carbohydrates, and protein?
Cells that surround the stomata and control when it opens and closes so gases can get in
What are guard cells?
These are the outputs of photosynthesis.
What are oxygen and glucose?
Organelles in plant cells where photosynthesis takes place.
What are chloroplast?
This is the process of loss of water vapor from plants through the stomata
What is transpiration?
Plants produce these 2 things that humans can use.
What is oxygen and glucose?
The organelle where photosynthesis happens. It is able to use the sun's energy to convert CO2 and water into food.
What is chloroplast?
If any of these were eliminated, plants could not have glucose as an output.
What are inputs? (carbon dioxide, water, & light energy)
Growing plants in nutrient rich water instead of soil.
What is hydroponics?
They are in charge of opening and closing the stomata
What are guard cells?
The type of sugar made during photosynthesis that plants use as food and gives us energy.
What is glucose?
