The organelle where photosynthesis occurs
What is a chloroplast?
regulate amount o water released through transpiration
regulate exchange of gases with the atmosphere
The types of organisms that can do cellular respiration
What are plants and animals?
What is the ultimate source of energy for life on earth?
the sun
Which plant is said to be the world's fastest growing, increasing by up to 35 inches in a day?
bamboo
The organelle where cellular respiration occurs
What is a mitochondria
During light reactions in photosynthesis, what molecules are being used and produce?
Used: H2O
Made: ATP, O2
Which cellular respiration process produces the most ATP?
Bonus 200pts: How many ATP can you get from one molecule of glycolosis?
aerobic respiration
Organisms that get their energy to make their own food are called:
(2 different terms)
Producer & Autotrophs
The type of astronomical body said to be a second moon from September 29th to November this fall?
Asteroid
Leaf cells have more chloroplasts than cells in other parts of the plant. Why?
leaf cells have the best access to sunlight which is needed for photosynthesis
Cutting down (deforesting) trees in a forest would result in an increase of this molecule
What is carbon dioxide?
The process occuring in A
What is aerobic respiration?
Identify the products AND reactants in this equation:
Products: 2H2O + CO2
Reactants: CH4 + 2O2
Due to the rotation of the earth, the hours of daylight and night change.
What do we call the day in the fall when there are equal amounts of sunlight and darkness?
Autumnal Equinox
Where in the cell does glycolosis occur?
the cytoplasm
During photosynthesis, hydrogen from water (H2O) combines with carbon dioxide (CO2) to make this molecule
What is glucose/sugar?
During cellular respiration, glucose/sugar is metabolized to release this energy compound used by cells as fuel
What is ATP?
Where do the 6 carbon atoms that make up in glucose come from during photosynthesis?
What is carbon dioxide?
Where does the quote “Double, double toil and trouble” come from?
William Shakespeare's "Macbeth"
This organism only has mitochondria (not chloroplasts)
What is an animal/nonplant organism
Increased light
Increased CO2 in atmosphere
Increased H2O
Increased temperature (up until evaporation is too much)
This cellular respiration process produces the most ATP
What is aerobic respiration?
How does carbon cycle through this closed system?
air -> plant -> fish/snail -> air
Forrest Mars and Bruce Murrie created this popular halloween candy?
