Nutrition, Photosynthesis, Respiration

Question 1

Nutrition is, and is used for(4)

Answer 1

Taking in nutrients(food) for various activities such as:

1. Respiration(energy)
2. Growth
3. Repair
4. Synthesis

Question 2

Ingestion

Answer 2

Taking in nutrients

Question 3

Digestion

Answer 3

Breaking down nutrients

Question 4

Starches are digested into

Answer 4

Sugars

Question 5

Proteins are digested into

Answer 5

Amino Acids

Question 6

Autotrophic

Answer 6

Organisms that make their own food through processes like photosynthesis.
Ex: Plant, Algae

Question 7

Heterotrophic

Answer 7

Organisms must consume nutrients made by other organisms

Ex: Animals & Fungi

Question 8

1. Carnivores consume 2. Herbivores consume 3. Omnivores consume 4. Decomposers break down

Answer 8

1. Animals 2. Plants 3. Consume both 4. dead animals

Question 9

Photosynthesis is and requires/produces/wastefully makes

Answer 9

The purpose of photosynthesis is to provide food for plants. Photosynthesis converts light, water (H2O), & carbon dioxide (CO2) into glucose & oxygen (O2); plants use glucose–a type of sugar–for food & to grow, creating roots, stems, leaves, & other parts of the plant.
It requires: Sunlight + CO2 + H2O
Makes: Glucose as food
Waste Products: O2 & H2O

Question 10

The cell that does photosynthesis

Answer 10

Chloroplast

Question 11

(Gas Exchange) Stomates and Guard Cells

Answer 11

Stomates are holes under a leaf that let gasses in and out

Guard Cells open and close stomates to prevent dehydration

Question 12

Cellular respiration

Answer 12

Process that takes energy from sugar molecules and places it in molecules of ATP.

Question 13

What does cellular respiration require/wastefully produces

Answer 13

Requires: Glucose + O2 + H2O

Waste products: CO2 & H2O

Question 14

ATP

Answer 14

The molecule all life uses for energy

Question 15

Aerobic respiration is used by most organisms, which..

Answer 15

Does require oxygen and is carried out in the mitochondria. Generally produces more ATP.

Question 16

Anerobic is used by less organisms, which…

Answer 16

Do not require oxygen, and are generally simpler organisms. This type of respiration produces less ATP than aerobic respiration.

Question 17

Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration are opposite reactions! And they are also important for cycling oxygen, carbon, hydrogen and water through the environment. Give the formulas for processes.

Answer 17

Cellular Respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6+ 6O2 + ATP
