Chemical reaction for cellular respiration
C16h12o6 (sugar) + o2 (oxygen) ➡️ co2 (carbon dioxide + h2o (water) + energy (atp)
Carbohydrate
A compound made from carbon,hydrogen,and oxygen
Cellular respiration
Process where starches and sugars are broken down into the cells
Cellulose
The main substance that makes up the cell wall in the plants
Chlorophyll
The chemical that absorbs and stores the energy of sunlight
Chloroplast
Where photosynthesis is carried out,located in the cells under the epidermis
Photosynthesis
The process that use energy from the sun to make food from water and carbon dioxide
Stomata
Tiny pores in the bottom of leaves that take in carbon dioxide from air
Chemical reaction for photosynthesis
Co2 (carbon dioxide) + energy (sun) + h2o(water)➡️c6h12o6 (sugar) + o2 (oxygen)
