Q

Why do living things need energy at all times?

A
  • move materials into and out of the cell
  • make different chemicals
  • get rid of wastes
  • build body parts, replace cells or reproduce

Q

photosynthesis

A

when plants use energy from sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to make sugars (also produces oxygen). turns light energy into chemical energy

20
Q

equation for photosynthesis

A

6CO2 + H20 + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6 O2

carbon dioxide + water + light energy = sugar and oxygen

21
Q

glucose

A

sugar that stores chemical energy (food that plants make) plant cells break it down for food

22
Q

where is excess glucose stored?

A

stored in starch in the roots & stems of plants

23
Q

the process of breaking down food to produce ATP

A

cellular respiration

24
Q

ATP

A

adenosine triphosphate-powers many of the chemical reactions that enable cells to survive. the molecule that energy is stored in when sugar is broken down

25
Q

Are mitochondria found in animal or plant cells?

A

Both

26
Q

Where does cellular respiration take place?

A

cytoplasm and cell membranes of prokaryotic cells & in organelles called mitochondria and cytoplastm of eukaryotic cells

27
Q

What are the starting materials of cellular respiration

A

glucose and oxygen

28
Q

Describe cellular respiration in eukaryotes

A

first stage in the cytoplasm where glucose is broken down into two 2 carbon molecules
the second step occurs in them mitochondria (requires oxygen)
As the 3-carbon molecules are broken down, energy is captured and stored in ATP

29
Q

what are the products of cellular respiration

A

ATP (chemical energy), carbon dioxide, and water

30
Q

what happens to carbon dioxide produced during cellular respiration?

A

it is released by the cell, in many animals it is released in the lungs

31
Q

what happens to the energy produced during cellular respiration

A

it is released as heat
however much of the energy is transferred to ATP
ATP can be broken down, the energy released is used for cellular activities.

32
Q

Equation for cellular respiration

A

C6H12O2— 6CO2+ 6H2O + chemical energy (ATP)

33
Q

How are respiration & cellular respiration connected?

A

Photosynthesis makes oxygen, organisms use oxygen during cellular respiration. they then produce CO2 and release it. Plants use the CO2 to make sugar.

they depend on each other

34
Q

When there isn’t enough oxygen, living things can get energy (ATP) by what process?

A

anaerobic respiration (doesn’t make as much as cellular respiration)

35
Q

Fermentation

A

a type of anaerobic respiration (eg. yeast uses to make bread rise)

36
Q

T/F A producer eats other organisms?

A

False

37
Q

T/F Organisms get energy from food

A

True

38
Q

T/F Carbon dioxide is required for cellular respiration

A

True?

39
Q

T/F Cellular respiration takes place in the chloroplast.

A

False

40
Q

T/F Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their own food

A

True

41
Q

T/F Chlorophyll captures light energy during photosynthesis

A

True

42
Q

T/F The products of photosynthesis are the starting materials of cellular respiration

A

True

43
Q

_______________ takes place in organelles called chloroplasts

A

photosynthesis

44
Q

Light energy is captured by green pigments called _________

A

chlorophyll

45
Q

cells use oxygen to release energy during _____________

A

cellular respiration

46
Q

what are the starting material and products of photosynthesis?

A

water, CO2 and sunlight are the starting materials

products- oxygen and sugar (starting products for cell resp.)

47
Q

How do plants and animals get their energy in different ways?

A

plants get energy from making their own food, animals from consuming other living things

48
Q

Plants don’t move so why do they need energy?

A

they need energy to grow and to make their own food (from energy from the sun)
