Question | Answer |
---|---|
Autotroph | An organism that makes it's own food/energy(independent) ex. plants |
heterotroph | An organism that depends on other organisms to supply there food/energy (dependent) ex. animals + humans |
Chlorophyll | A green pigment in chloroplast |
Stomata | Opening in the underside of a leaf. Let's out oxygen and brings in carbon dioxide. |
Photosynthesis | The process in which a plant captures energy from the sun- chlorophyll absorbs the energy in the chloroplasts-(stage one) and uses sun energy, carbon dioxide, and water to make sugars fro food/energy and oxygen(stage two) |
Carbon Dioxide + water ----> Light Energy= Sugar + Oxygen | Photosynthesis formula- opposite for respiration |
Respiration | Cells break down sugars and release the energy |
Stage 1 in Res- | In the cytoplasm, molecules of glucose are broken down into smaller molecules |
Stage 2 in Res- | In the Mitochondria ,the smaller molecules use oxygen to further break down the molecules which releases energy. |
Sugar + Energy-----> Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy | Respiration Like Formula, opposite from photosynthesis |
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 in body |
