Photosynthesis,plants

• Photosynthesis


  The process by which plants and algae use light energy to make their own food
• Things plants need for photosynthesis

  • Water
  • Light
  • Carbon dioxide
• Photosynthesis


  Carbon dioxide + water -> Glucose + oxygen
• Chloroplasts


  Small objects inside plant cells where photosynthesis takes place
• Plant life cycle


  1. Seed

  2. Sprout

  3. Small plant

  4. Adult plant
• Pollination


  Pollen from one flower travels to another flower
• Pollination


  • Bright petals attract pollinators
• Seed dispersal


  1. Gravity

  2. Wind

  3. Water

  4. Animals

  5. Explosive fruits
• Germination


  The process by which a plant grows from a seed into a seedling
• Processes in plant reproduction

  • Germination
  • Pollination
  • Fertilization
• Periodic table


  Groups are vertical, periods are horizontal
• Dalton's model


  All matter is made from tiny particles
• Boiling point


  Liquid turning to gas
• Melting point


  Solid turning to liquid
• Aerobic respiration


  Chemical reaction that happens in cells, including plant and animal cells, that requires oxygen
• Anaerobic respiration


  Chemical reaction that happens in cells that does not require oxygen, releases a small amount of energy
• Aerobic respiration


  Produces carbon dioxide as a waste product
• Respiration


  Chemical reaction, breathing is physical
