Before Photosynthesis
The organelle where light is captured in a plant cell.
What are chloroplasts?
The process that converts glucose into energy, allowing us to think, breathe, and move. Basically, we would not be alive without it.
What is cellular respiration?
The process that breaks down food molecules to release stored energy.
What is cellular respiration?
Light-dependent; light-independent phases
What are the phases of photosynthesis?
Oxygen + Sugar → Energy + Carbon dioxide + Water
What is the formula for Cellular Respiration?
Increased trees means that there will be more oxygen in the environment
What is the effect of planting more trees in an area?
How many photosystems are involved in the gathering and processing of light waves on the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast?
There are 2 photosystems
Carbon Dioxide, Water
What are the reactants of photosynthesis?
The place carbon dioxide comes from before entering the leaf.
What is the environment (atmosphere)?
Sugar and Oxygen
What are the reactants of cellular respiration?
plants are a ______ source to animals
food source
What is another name for the light independent phase of PHOTOSYNTHESIS?
The calvin cycle
Glucose and Oxygen.
What are the products of Photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis converts __________ into chemical energy
sun(light) energy
Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP
What are the products of cellular respiration?
An increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would increase the amount of this process happening.
What is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis involves the transformation of light energy into-
chemical energy
It is not a PHYSICAL input to photosynthesis, but is required for the reaction to proceed.
What is sunlight?
The holes in the bottom of leaves through which carbon dioxide enters the leaf and oxygen leaves.
What are stomata?
32-38
How many ATP, on average, are produced through the process of aerobic cellular respiration from one glucose molecule?
sunlight is a reactant of this process
What is photosynthesis?
ATP and NADPH
energy carriers
