Photosynthesis

Entails photosynethesis related questions

QuestionAnswer
Nutrition The study of nutrients in food, how the body uses them and the relationship between diet, health, and diseases
2 types of nutrition 1) Autotrophic 2) Heterotrophic
Autotrophic Organisms that make their own food using inorganic substances
Heterotrophic Organisms that depend on other organisms to produce their food
3 types of heterotrophic nutrition 1) Holozoic Nutrition 2) Saprophytic Nutrition 3) Parasitic Nutrition
Layers of the internal structure of the leaf 1) Upper Epidermis 2) Palisade Layer 3) Spongy Layer 4) Lower Epidermis
What part of the vascular bundle is the xylem vessel located The upper part
Function of waxy cuticle Prevents water from evaporating from the leaf
Plural of Stoma Stomata
Function guard cells Responsible for opening and closing the stoma
Why are the palisade mesophyll cells arranged like fence? To maximize light absorption
Where does the most photosynthesis occur Palisade Layer
Why are spongy cells loosely packed? For efficient gas exchange
Function of xylem vessel Carries water and minerals
Function of phloem tubes Carries away food that the leaf has made
Photosynthesis Process by which green plants make their own food usine inorganic substances
Worded and Chemical Equation of Photosynthesis Carbon dioxide + Water Sunlight/Chlorophyll----> Glucose + Oxygen 6CO2 + 6H2O sunlight/chlorophyll-----> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Where does the light dependent stage take place Thylakoid of the chloroplast
(T or F) Chlorophyll does not trap energy from the sun F
Molecule high in energy Atp (Adenosine Triphosphate)
What splits water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen? Energy
What process is use to rid oxygen as a waste product from the leaf? Diffusion
Another name for Light Independent Stage Calvin Cycle
What happens in the Light Independent stage? Enzymes are used to combine hydrogen with carbon dioxide to make glucose
List 3 internal Leaf Adaptions 1) Stomata present in lower epidermis to allow gas in and out 2) Air spaces in lower leaf aloow carbon dioxide to get to chloroplasts 3)Chloroplast is more abundant in cells in palisade layer, located at the top part of the leaf, closest to sunlight
Uses of Glucose 1) Broken down during respiration to release energy so plan can carry out life processes 2) Converted to starch and stored in the leaf 3) Converted to sucrose and transported to other parts of plant
List the Limiting Factors in Photosynthesis 1) Temperature 2) Light Intensity 3) Carbon Dioxide Concentration 3) Availability of water

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.
