Where does photosynthesis take place?
In the chloroplasts of plant cells

Where does Cellular Respiration take place? Which cell(s)? (2 answers)
In the mitochondria or both plants and animals!
100
This is the security guard of the cell.
The Cell Membrane!

Danggit, you keep getting sick! Which two organelles might not be functioning properly in your cells? #Back2SchoolGerms
The Cell Membrane because it is allowing pathogens (invaders) into the cell.
The Lysosomes because they aren't removing the waste from the cell.
100
Which organelle in the plant cell would be more prominent (important/plentiful) in this part of the plant?
The Cell Wall will be thicker to support the structure of the plant!
200
What is photosynthesis?
How plants make their own energy because they're producers
200
What is Cellular Respiration?
How an organism converts (changes) oxygen and food into energy.
200
This is the highway or streets of the cell.
The Cytoplasm b/c they allow waste and other organelles to travel along it.

Uh Oh! You fell and scrapped your knee! Which organelles in the cell will help heal that scrape? (2 answers)
Nucleus to replicate the DNA in your cells.
Mitochondria for energy to create more cells.
200
Which organelles are going to be more prominent (important/plentiful) in this part of the plant?
Chloroplasts to make their energy!
300
What are the inputs of photosynthesis?
Inputs: Sunlight, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Water (H2O)
300
What are the inputs of Cellular Respiration?
Inputs: Oxygen (O2) and Food (glucose)
300
A garbage disposal is similar to the __________ in a cell.
Lysosomes (only in animal cells)

You're holding your breath underwater and eventually have to come up for air. Why does your body naturally fight to come up for air?
Your body needs to perform cellular respiration to breathe and needs energy to maintain homeostasis.
300
Which organelles are going to be more prominent (important/plentiful) in this part of the body?
Mitochondria because it requires a lot of energy to send information to the body!
400
What are the outputs of photosynthesis?
Outputs: Oxygen (O2) and Glucose
400
What are the outputs of Cellular Respiration? (3 answers)
Outputs: Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Water (H2O), and Energy in the form of ATP

This organelle is similar to the principal of a school
The Nucleus

Diabetes is a disorder in the body where your pancreas cannot secrete (release) insulin. Insulin helps keep your blood sugar low. When you eat, sugars are broken down into your blood stream. Without insulin, you will have too much sugar in your blood which can kill you. Which organelles in blood cells might be overwhelmed by diabetes?
The Lysosomes because they don't have enough manpower to remove the extra sugar in the blood.
400
What organelles are going to be prominent (important/plentiful) in WHITE blood cells?
Lysosomes because they remove waste and White Blood Cells defeat bacteria and viruses in the body.
500
Do plants perform photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Yes! Photosynthesis to make their food and cellular respiration to breathe!

You have two test tubes with an aquatic plant. Test Tube A has the aquatic plant with no water in it. Test Tube B has the aquatic plant with water in it. Both test tubes have a cork at the top to keep the air in. You placed Test Tube A in the sunlight, and placed Test Tube B in the dark. The next day, Test tube A was tested and showed that it had no CO2, while Test Tube B had CO2 in it. Why is that?
Because plants perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration, even without sunlight, the plant can still produce CO2 through cellular respiration.

These two organelles are the power plants!
Mitochondria and Chloroplasts

Diabetes is a disorder in the body where your pancreas cannot secrete (release) insulin. Insulin helps keep your blood sugar low. When you eat, sugars are broken down into your blood stream. Without insulin, you will have too much sugar in your blood which can kill you. Which organelles in the pancreas cells might not be working if you have diabetes?
The Ribosomes because they create the proteins for insulin.
500
Which organelles are going to be most prominent (important/abundant) in this part of the plant?
Vacuoles to hold onto water!
