Exploring the Connection Between Photosynthesis and Cellular Res

What is another word that means “producer”?

• Autotroph is another word that means “producer”.

• Heterotroph

• Decomposer

• Consumer

What is ATP?

• ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the primary energy carrier in all living organisms.

• A nucleotide that serves as the primary energy carrier in all living organisms.

• A carbohydrate that provides structural support in plant cells.

• A lipid that stores energy in adipose tissue.

What is photosynthesis?

• Photosynthesis is the process by producers of convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, using carbon dioxide and water.

• A method of respiration in animals that involves the intake of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide.

• The process of breaking down glucose to release energy in the presence of oxygen.

• A technique used by humans to create energy from fossil fuels.

At the end of photosynthesis, where is the energy from the sun stored?

• The energy from the sun is stored as glucose C₆H₁₂O₆.

• As glucose C₆H₁₂O₆

• As starch

• As oxygen

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

• Chlorophyll is the green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy to drive photosynthesis.

• Chlorophyll is the green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy to drive photosynthesis.

• Chlorophyll is a protein that helps in the respiration process of plants.

• Chlorophyll is a mineral that aids in soil fertility.

How do YOU depend on photosynthesis?

• We are dependent on photosynthesis for glucose and oxygen.

• Photosynthesis is essential for the production of carbon dioxide.

• Photosynthesis helps in the formation of nitrogen compounds.

• We rely on photosynthesis for the creation of water.

Which process moves water from a higher concentration in the ground to a lower concentration in the roots?

• The process of osmosis moves water from a higher concentration in the ground to a lower concentration in the roots.

• Osmosis

• Transpiration

• Capillary Action

Which process removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?

• Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

• Respiration releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

• Combustion of fossil fuels removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

• Decomposition of organic matter releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

What are the reactants needed for photosynthesis to happen?

• The reactants of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water.

• Carbon dioxide and water

• Nitrogen and minerals

• Hydrogen and sunlight

What are the reactants needed for cellular respiration?

• The reactants needed for cellular respiration are glucose (C₆H₁₂O_{6 )} and oxygen (O₂).

• Carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O)

• Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and nitrogen (N₂)

• Fatty acids and oxygen (O₂)
