Ch. 4 Plants Flashcards
- Capturing light energy
- Carbon dioxide and water are converted into sugar
- most reactions in this process occur in the spaces between the two chloroplast membranes
- several enzymes are needed for these chemical changes
- energy is stored in the chemical bonds of sugar molecule
Process of photosynthesis
The_________found in plant walls is made of sugar molecules
Cellulose
___________exemplifies irreducible complexity
Photosynthesis
________in bread dough performs alcoholic fermentation: as the tiny yeast cells release carbon dioxide gas, the gas is trapped
Leaven
_______In the bread is like false doctrine in the church
Leaven
- Produces lactic acid
- produced and released by bacteria
- example the taste of foods such as yogurt, cottage cheese, buttermilk, sauerkraut.
Lactic acid fermentation
________Group of similar cells that work to perform a particular function
Tissue
________A group of tissues that work together to accomplish a particular function
Organ
________Group of organs that work together to perform a life function
Organ system
_________Organisms that Live together but can live independently
colonial
__________Labor is divided among the tissues and organs of an organism in order to keep the whole organism alive
Division of labor
Chloroplast have two membranes
Outer membrane
Inner membrane
_________is located in the chloroplasts
Chlorophyll
_______energy is turned to potential energy
Kinetic
This process takes sunlight carbon dioxide and water and converts them into oxygen and the chemical energy of sugar
Photosynthesis
