WorksheetsConservation of Mass & Cellular Respiration/ Photosynthesis
Total questions: 12
Worksheet time: 10mins
Jordan adds some soil and plants to a large glass jar to build a
terrarium. He waters the plants and then adds two snails, two crickets,
and an earthworm to the jar. Jordan then places the lid tightly on the
jar and sets it on a sunny windowsill. Based on the law of conservation
of mass, which of the following is expected to occur inside Jordan’s
terrarium?
The mass will increase as the plants grow and decrease when the
snails eat the plants.
The mass will increase as the earthworm digests the soil.
The mass will decrease when the crickets die.
The mass will neither increase nor decrease.
What evidence should be present to show that labels B and D support the Law of Conservation of Mass and Energy?
oxygen coming in and water being released
glucose being taken in and oxygen being released
carbon dioxide coming in and glucose being created
sunlight being absorbed and carbon dioxide being released
What is the importance of the part labeled E?
What is the importance of the part labeled E
Oxygen is converted into carbon dioxide and released from the plant
Water is the source of hydrogen that is found in the glucose
Carbon dioxide is used to create the glucose for the plant
Which of these pieces of evidence would support the Law of Conservation shown in process C?
Glucose is broken down into oxygen that is then taken up by plants for photosynthesis
Cellular respiration produces the oxygen that will be used to convert the glucose into carbon dioxide
Glucose in the bread is converted into energy so that the organism can carry out all of its required processes
Carbon dioxide from the breakdown of glucose is used to create more glucose for plants during photosynthesis
Why is sunlight so important to the process of photosynthesis?
It transforms the carbon dioxide into oxygen that is released through the leaves
It provides the needed temperatures to change glucose into water
It provides the energy needed to combine the atoms in glucose
It raises the levels of gases in the air so that water can change into oxygen
During the forest fire, chemical potential energy is converted to thermal energy when trees and plants burn. How does this demonstrate the law of conservation of energy?
Heat is transferring to the forest’s surroundings
Energy is changing form
Some plants and animals survive
Energy continues to enter the ecosystem
Which organisms perform cellular respiration?
Dog
Cat
Mushroom
Which organisms photosynthesize?
Flower
Algae
Bacteria
Which cell organelle is where photosynthesis takes place?
Which cell organelle is where cellular respiration takes place?
Label the following Carbon cycle.
