Photosynthesis 1
The process that uses energy from the sun to make food from water and carbon dioxide
What is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis uses light energy, carbon dioxide, and ______ to produce oxygen and sugar.
What is water?
When we eat food, our body gets ________ from the carbohydrates stored in the food.
What is energy?
Name at least five sense receptors
eyes, nose, ears, taste buds, touch (skin)
This body system allows us to balance, move, and react by processing information from the environment
What is the nervous system?
The place where photosynthesis occurs within the leaves
What is the Chloroplast?
This is the chemical formula for Carbon Dioxide.
What is CO2?
What are A and B on either side of an arrow in a chemical reaction? A====>B
A= Reactants
B = Products
This part of the eye is located at the back of the eye and has two types of cells - Rod cells and cone cells with photoreceptors.
What is the retina?
Roots have these two main jobs.
What are anchorage and absorption?
These are tiny pores in the bottom of leaves that take in carbon dioxide from the air
What are stomata?
Photosynthesis creates these components.
What are oxygen and glucose?
Glucose is broken down in the cells in this process.
What is cellular respiration?
Light enters the eye through this part of the eye.
What is the cornea?
This is the cell part that controls all the activity of a cell.
What is the nucleus?
This is the chemical formula for Oxygen and Water
The green chemical in the chloroplasts that absorbs and stores energy from the sun.
What is Chlorophyll?
Cellular respiration happens in this place within the cell
What is the Mitochondria?
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease affect cells in these two places in the body, which in turn makes muscles weak and difficult to control.
What is the brain and spinal cord?
What time of day do plants open their stomata? What is the evidence of this?
What are dawn and dusk? Morning dew is the proof. (or sunflower example)
Plants usually store sugar as a _________.
The cell walls of a plant cell are made of this.
What is cellulose?
This is what will happen if lactic acid builds up in humans.
What are muscle cramps?
Odors are molecules that are detected by these chemical receptors
What are chemoreceptors
What is the formula for Photosynthesis?
CO2 + H2O + Light = O2 + Glucose
