Photosynthesis/R

Vocab

QuestionAnswer
Photosynthesis When plants use the sun to give them food. Glucose, respiration, to ATP. CO2+H2O→C6H12O6+O2+Sun
Autotroph Make their own food.
Chloroplast Produces food through photosynthesis and it's in the category of plant cells.
Grana Stack of sacs set in the stroma of the chloroplast.
Thylakoid Each of the sacs in the stroma.
Stroma Tissue that is connected to a structure of organ, gland, and or others.
Light-Dependent Reaction Plants get energy from the sun and water, which is broken down to energy, NADPH. Which is being turned into oxygen, hydrogen.
Calvin Cycle Carbon dioxide being turned into glucose.
Cuticle Top part of the leaf in the chloroplast that keeps the water in.
Spongy Mesophyll Unsteady together. Many empty places in between. (Cells) Used for efficient gas exchange.
Palisade Mesophyll Fastened together. Many chloroplasts. Protects the cells. Used for efficient gas exchange.
Stoma Where the gas exchange takes place. It is the opening of the bottom part of the leaf.
Guard Cells Regulates when the stomata is opening and closing.
Transpiration Where the plant's lose water as it evaporates through the stoma.
Xylem From the roots to the leaves and is a straight line.
Phloem A straight line from the leaf that brings glucose to the trunk.
Pigment The color that gives the (plant) it’s color.
Carotenoids The orange colored pigment in plants.
Xanthophylls The yellow colored pigment in plants.
Chlorophyll Green pigment that makes the plant have color.
Chromatography The separation between two different elements.
Cellular Respiration Use oxygen to make smaller parts of food that make energy. Opposite of photosynthesis.
Aerobic Respiration Process that uses oxygen to break down food to make energy. The location is in the Mitochondria. Glucose + O2 → CO2 + H2O + Energy
Mitochondria Produces/releases energy “Powerhouse” and it's called cellular respiration.
Matrix The most (in) part of the Mitochondria. Provides aerobic respiration.
Cristae Folds of the membrane in the Mitochondria. Produces energy for the cell.
Glycolysis Uses enzymes to shrink down glucose and they don’t use oxygen.
Electron Transport Chain When ATP gets energy from a cell from the sun's light in photosynthesis.
Bromthymol Blue An indicator used to see how acidic the experiment is. Yellow means more acidic.
Anaerobic Respiration (fermentation) Process that does not use oxygen to break down food to make energy. Produces less ATP.
Lactic Acid Fermentation When cells need ATP to make smaller pieces. In bacteria, the location is in the muscle, used for the dairy makings. Glucose → lactic acid + energy
Lactic Acid How cells make energy without the use of oxygen.
Alcoholic Fermentation Convert glucose to ATP by separation. In yeast cells. Glucose → Co2 + alcohol + energy
Krebs Cycle A way to make ATP.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
