Stomata | opening of of the underside of the leaf. Lets out oxygen and brings in carbon dioxide. |
Photosynthesis | – 2 stages – stage 1- the process of a plant capturing the energy of the sun (chlorophyll) and absorbing the energy in the chloroplasts. - stage 2- the cell uses the energy to produce sugars and oxygen. |
Photosynthesis equation | Carbon dioxide + water ------------> sugar + oxygen |
Fermentation | When the body can't supply the cells oxygen anymore, fermentation supplies the cells with energy without using oxygen. 2 kinds alcoholic - occurs in yeast lactic acid occurs in muscles |
