photosynthesis, cell cycle, cell respiration
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Plants capture sunlight and it to produce their own food through a process known as | photosynthesis. |
| Each plant cell contains organelles called | chloroplasts. |
| Chloroplast are full of | Chlorophyll which plants use to make |
| Photosynthesis occurs in the | chloroplast of the cell. |
| What is the equation for photosynthesis | 6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6 + 6O2 Sunlight energy CO2 = carbon dioxide H2O = water Light energy is required C6H12O6 = glucose O2 = oxygen |
| So through this process, plants make food, which for them is | Glucose |
| They also give off | oxygen |
| is a simple sugar found in plants and animals. | Glucose |
| When a cell uses energy to transport large molecules across the cell membrane into the cell we call it | Endocytosis (cells absorb molecules) |
| Movement of substances from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration it is known as | diffusion |
| Diffusion is the way substances reach | Equilibrium or become balanced |
| The diffusion of water across the cell membrane is called | OSMOSIS |
| The cell only allows certain substances to enter and leave the cell. This type of regulation is referred to as | Selective Permeability. |
| are structures inside of the cell that helps pull the chromosomes apart. | Spindle Fibers |
| chromosomes (DNA) get copied. It is the longest phase of the cell cycle. | Interphase |
| is the process in which the organisms use oxygen to break down food molecules to release energy. All forms of life except viruses carry out respiration. | Cellular respiration |
| Aerobic | respiration requires oxygen |
| Anaerobic | Respiration does not require oxygen. |
| what is the mitosis phases | PROPHASE - METAPHASE - ANAPHASE - TELOPHASE - INTERPHASE |
| The regular sequence of growth and division is a process called | Cell Cycle |
| daughter cells | have the same pieces and genetic code |
| Each copy has the | same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. |
| It duplicates its | DNA and the two new cells |
