Question | Answer |
Plants | the only organism that does photosynthesis |
Photosynthesis | chemical reaction of natural substances to make glucose |
Chlorophyll | located inside the chloroplasts; obtains the sunlight; acts as a "factory" to make the glucose |
When does Photosynthesis occur? | Photosynthesis only occurs in the daytime because this in the only time light is present |
Purpose of Photosynthesis | to make glucose(sugar) which is later turned into energy for the plant to use |
Formula for Photosynthesis | 6CO2+6H20+SUNLIGHT--->C6H1206+O2 |
Who needs Photosynthesis? | plants are extremely important to the universe, without plants doing Photosynthesis, people wouldn't survive. |
What are the inputs of Photosynthesis? | Water (H2O), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Sunlight |
Plants, Animals, and People | the organisms that do Cellular Respiration |
Cellular Respiration | process that makes energy |
When does Cellular Respiration occur? | all the time- day and night |
Purpose of Cellular Respiration | to turn the glucose made from Photosynthesis into energy for the plant |
Formula for Cellular Respiration | C6H1206+O2--->6CO2+H20=ATP (formula for Photosynthesis backwards.) |
What's needed to do Cellular Respiration? | glucose and oxygen are needed to make the energy |
What's ATP? | ATP is a form of energy (chemical energy) that respiration makes for the plant to use |
Forms of glucose made | starch and cellulose |
What is starch used for? | starch is a form of glucose that is easier to break down, and stored for later use |
What's cellulose? | a form of glucose that is used for building cell parts |
Where does cellular respiration occur? | in the mitochondria |
What does mitochondria do? | glucose goes to the mitochondria, and this is the place where the ATP is made, and sent out to parts of the plant |
Where's mitochondria located? | in the cell of the plant |
