What is the name for all of the chemical reactions that take place inside of organisms in order to keep them alive? 

metabolism

300

This gas is used for photosynthesis.

CO2

300

These types of cells have lots of mitochondria because they are constantly working.

muscle cells

300

Photosynthesis takes place in this organelle.

chloroplasts

How was the ancient Earth's atmosphere billions of years ago different than it is today? (Hint: this is one of the main reasons we animals could not have survived on the ancient Earth.)

There was much less oxygen.

Write the chemical equation for photosynthesis as well as the words that each chemical represents.

6CO2 + 6H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + 6O2

Carbon dioxide+water+light -->glucose+oxygen

400

When muscle cells are more active their ________ have to make more ______. 

mitochondria, ATP

500

Identify this organelle.

chloroplast

500

Biologically usable energy comes in the form of this molecule which cells use to power all of their activities.

ATP

500

Double points

Write the chemical equation for cellular respiration as well as the words that each chemical represents.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

Glucose+oxygen --> carbon dioxide+water+ATP

500

This is the green pigment that is found in plant cells and is needed for photosynthesis. 

chlorophyll

600

Identify the products of photosynthesis. (2)

Glucose and Oxygen

C6H12O6 and O2

600

Cellular respiration makes energy by breaking the _______ within glucose which releases the energy needed to make ATP.

chemical bonds

600

Other than plants, name one other species that uses photosynthesis. 

cyanobacteria 

algae 

phytoplankton

600

There are two main types of metabolism: chemical reactions that break things down or build things up. Cellular respiration is a(n) _________ process because it breaks down food in order to create _______.


catabolic

ATP

700

Identify the reactants of photosynthesis. (3)

Carbon Dioxide CO2

Water H2O

Light energy

700

Point donation

During ________ cellular respiration, muscle cells run low on oxygen and produce less ______ and more ___________. 

anaerobic

ATP

lactic acid

700

How are cellular respiration and photosynthesis related?


They are basically reverse processes since the products of photosynthesis are used as reactants in cellular respiration and the products of cellular respiration are used as reactants in photosynthesis.

700

This is the metabolic process by which some types of bacteria create their own food by using the energy contained in certain chemicals. 

chemosynthesis

800

Explain why photosynthesis must have evolved before aerobic cellular respiration. 

Aerobic cellular respiration cannot take place without oxygen in the air. However, large amounts of oxygen were not present in the air until photosynthesizing bacteria first generated this oxygen billions of years ago. 

800

Explain why your heart must pump harder when you exercise. Be sure to incorporate the main parts of cellular respiration into your answer.

When we exercise our muscle cells require more oxygen in order to create more ATP. The heart must pump harder in order to deliver oxygen to the muscles more quickly through the blood stream. 

800

What adaptation do cacti have that allow them to do photosynthesis in the desert? 

 

They can store water for long periods of time. 


800

There are two main types of metabolism: chemical reactions that break things down or build things up. Photosynthesis is a(n) _________ process because it uses light energy in order to create _______.

anabolic

glucose
