Bio lesson 8 mod 2
Cards (23)
- every cell, needs a continual supply of energy if it is to remain alive.
- (cell, needs continual supply energy to remain alive) this energy originally comes from surprising source: sunlight. It is light energy
- light energy from sun powers life on earth
- Most organisms cannot use life energy directly, only one can which?Plants
- How do plants capture all energy needed?A process called Photosynthesis
- What is photosynthesis?Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen.
- Plants pass the energy needed on to other organisms in a form they can use
- Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction performed only by plants
- Can some bacteria photosynthesis?only few types of bacteria
- Plants use light energy to join together molecules of water (from the soil) and carbon dioxide (from the air) to make glucose.
- Light energy transformed into chemical energy stored in the glucose molecules in the leaves.
- Chemical emergy used by plant and other forms of life, making them run
- Glucose is "bottled sunlight energy" THINK OF IT LIKE THAT
- Photosynthesis involves several complex chemical
- Photosynthesis word equation:
- In Photosynthesis carbon diozide and water get used up, glucose and oxygen are made
- Photosynthesis word equation goes from, reactants(carbon dioxide+water) converted by light energy, and chlorophyll to the products (glucose+oxygen)
- Photosynthesis equation means carbon dioxide and water get used up. Whilst glucose and oxygen are made.
- Light energy is not a chemical substance
- Only chemical substances written on the line in a chemical eqution.
- Chlorophyll under arrow because altough it is a chemical substance it is not used or made in reaction, only recyled/transfers/changes. (absorb the light-glucose, oxygen)
- Sun provides heat and light radiation, plants use light in photosynthesis, not heat.
- Plants use any light of the right wave length in photosynthesis (fake light, lamps, coloured too)
