Photosynthesis NoTe5
photosynthesis and respiration
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Autotroph | An organism that can make it's own food/energy |
Heterotroph | An organism that depends on other organisms to supply it's food/energy |
Chlorophyll | a green pigment on the chloroplast |
Stomata | opening of the underside of a 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 absorbs the energy in the chloroplast and producing sugars. |
Stage 2 | the cell uses the energy to produce sugar and oxygen |
Respiration | cells break down sugar and release the energy |
Stage 1 | in the cytoplasm molecules of glucose are broken down into smaller molecules |
Stage 2 | in the mitochondria the smaller molecules use oxygen to further break down the molecules , which release energy |
Fermentation | When the body can't supply the cells oxygen anymore, fermentation supplies the cells with energy without using oxygen |
Alcoholic | occurs in yeast |
Lactic Acid | occurs in muscles |
