photosynthesis
Animals get the carbon and energy they need by eating this.
plants
What do animals take in during respiration?
oxygen
when humans burn fossil fuels carbon enters the atmosphere in this form
carbon dioxide
these two organisms are the main things that decompose organic matter
fungi and bacteria
Co2
Carbon dioxide
when carbon go's into a plant what comes out
glucose and oxygen
these are the two byproducts of respiration
carbon dioxide and water
Give an example of an activity that do combustion.
Factories, burning of fossil fuels, or burning of anything.
list two scavengers or carnivores that contribute to decomposition
dogs,wolves,foxes,rats,crows, and vultures
Process by which plants turn water, sunlight,and carbon dioxide into water, oxygen, and simple sugars
Photosynthesis
plants get carbon dioxide from this
from the atmosphere
What are the reactants in cellular respiration?
the chemical reaction or combustion happen, it gives off this
heat
True or False:All organisms decompose in the same way
false
Exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide
Respiration
this is the main pigment used in photosynthesis.
chlorophyll
lightness or darkness is needed in respiration(which one)
neither
these are the two reactants of combustion
fuel and oxygen
When fungi and bacteria break down organic matter these two substances are returned to the environment
carbon dioxide and water
Releases the stored Carbon into the atmosphere, where it becomes a greenhouse gas
Fossil fuel combustion
What is the overall purpose of photosynthesis?
To convert light energy to chemical energy
Where do cellular respiration take place?
Mitochondria
How is the process of photosynthesis different for a plant in a dark room vs outside in an open field?
Dark room = less reactants absorbed, less products products.
Outside = More reactants absorbed, more products produced
When decomposition does not take place, what will happen to dead organisms?
Become a fossil
he process by which cells convert chemical energy from nutrients like glucose into usable energy (ATP) by breaking down these nutrients in the presence of oxygen, releasing carbon dioxide and water as waste products
