The Power of Plants
This is defined as the ability to do work.
What is energy?
The process of converting sunlight into energy in plants.
What is photosynthesis?
Organisms like cacti and rose bushes that make their own food.
What are producers?
An animal that eats only plants, like a rabbit.
What is a herbivore?
Organisms use energy to move, body repair, and this.
What is growth?
Specialized cells in plants that collect light.
What are chloroplasts?
The process that releases energy when an animal eats a plant.
What is cellular respiration?
A role that recycles dead materials back into an ecosystem.
What is a decomposer?
These "first" consumers eat producers.
What are primary consumers?
All energy found in food was once energy from this source.
What is the sun?
These two materials are gathered by plants to make sugar.
What are carbon dioxide and water?
This gas is a waste product of photosynthesis.
What is oxygen?
In a food web, an owl or a lion is usually labeled as this.
What is a carnivore? (or secondary/tertiary consumer)

What is a carnivore?
Plants get materials for growth chiefly from water and this.
What is air?
Energy from the sun is converted by plants and stored as this.
What is glucose?
These two products of cellular respiration start photosynthesis.
What are water and carbon dioxide?
This level of consumer eats secondary consumers.
What is a tertiary consumer?
List three animals that are considered consumers.
Who are rabbits, lions, elephants, dogs, or humans?
Which of these is NOT a trait of life: Respond to stimuli, Grow, or Walk/Run?
What is walks and runs?
Plants make these in their leaves using carbon dioxide and water.
What are sugars?
A diagram of these two linked processes is known as a cycle.
What are photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
This could be the result of overhunting a predator in a region.
What is an increase in prey (or extinction)?
Humans belong to this broad category of organisms.
What are consumers?
These are the two waste products of photosynthesis.
