Photosynthesis
This is the source of energy for photosynthesis
What is the sun?
Organisms need what two molecules to perform cellular respiration
What are glucose and oxygen?
Name three forms of precipitation
What are: rain, hail, and snow?
Although it holds the largest amount, there is the least amount of movement of carbon going into or out of this reservoir
What are rocks?
The base of a trophic pyramid consists of
What are producers?
The number of inputs required for photosynthesis
What is 3?
The purpose of cellular respiration is to produces this molecule
Which gravity driven process results in water flowing above the surface of the ground
What is run off?
Carbon moves in and out of this reservoir the most frequently
What is the atmosphere?
Arrows in a food chain represent a transfer of this
What is energy?
What is glucose and oxygen?
This is a by-product that is unused by organisms after cellular respiration
What is carbon dioxide?
Water vapor cools and collects together
What is condensation?
This contributes the greatest amount of carbon into the atmosphere
What is cellular respiration?
A food habit that describes primary consumers
What are herbivores?
Word derived from Greek that means "to put together" or "to make"
What is synthesis?
This is the location where ATP is created
What is the mitochondria?
Water transitions directly from a solid to a gas
What is sublimation?
This contributes about 9 gt of carbon into the atmosphere each year
What is burning fossil fuels?
A tertiary consumer can be described as having this food habit
What is a carnivore?
Would there be more or less photosynthesis happening on JR planet as on planet earth? Why?
A planet is discovered that has two suns (24 hours of sunlight). The planet has a water cycle similar to ours. The atmosphere has twice as much oxygen as we do and trace (very small) amounts of CO2.
What is less. Plants need carbon dioxide to produce glucose. Even if it has more sunlight, the plants on that planet wouldn't have enough carbon.
This is the chemical equation for cellular respiration
What is C6H12O6+O2 -->ATP+CO2+H2O
The "river in the sky" above the Amazon Rainforest is a result from which process
What is transpiration
This process both contributes AND removes carbon from the atmosphere
What is ocean gas exchange?
Omnivores can be found on this tier (level) of a trophic pyramid
What is the second AND third tiers (levels)?
