Photosynthesis Play

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)   A molecule that provides energy for cellular reactions and processes  
🗑
Cellular Respiration   A complex set of chemical reactions involving an energy transformation where potential chemical energy in the bonds of “food” molecules is released and partially captured in the bonds of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules.  
🗑
Chloroplast   An organelle found in plant cells and the cells of other eukaryotic photosynthetic organisms where photosynthesis occurs.  
🗑
Energy Transformation   A process in which energy changes from one form to another form while some of the energy is lost to the environment.  
🗑
Mitochondrion   A membrane‐bound organelle found in most eukaryotic cells; site of cellular respiration.  
🗑
Molecule   The smallest particle of a substance that retains the chemical and physical properties of the substance and is composed of two or more atoms held together by chemical forces.  
🗑
Organelle   A subunit within a cell that has a specialized function.  
🗑
Photosynthesis   A process in which solar radiation is chemically captured by chlorophyll molecules and through a set of controlled chemical reactions resulting in the potential chemical energy in the bonds of carbohydrate molecules.  
🗑
Plastids   A group of membrane‐bound organelles commonly found in photosynthetic organisms and mainly responsible for the synthesis and storage of food  
🗑
Producer   An organism that uses a primary energy source to conduct photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.  
🗑
Temperature   A measure of the average kinetic energy (energy of motion) of particles in a sample of matter. This physical property can determine the rate and extent to which chemical reactions can occur within living systems.  
🗑
glycolysis   the splitting of sugar  
🗑
chlorophyll   green pigment in chloroplasts that capture the solar energy  
🗑
stroma   inner fluid in the chloroplasts  
🗑
thylakoids   Stacks of green "pancakes" in the chloroplasts  
🗑
stomata   openings in the leaves that allow for gas exchange  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
