Q

Where are the chloroplasts of the cells located?

A

Underneath the epidermis

19
Q

What is the outermost layer of the leaf?

20
Q

Inside the chloroplasts, what is combined in the presence of light energy and makes what?

A

Carbon dioxide and water combine to make sugars and oxygen

21
Q

What are the tissues that transport the sugars to all of the plant’s cells called?

22
Q

What are excess sugars stored as in the plant?

23
Q

During photosynthesis, plants produce sugar in the form of what?

24
****What are carbohydrates used for?
Energy stored as food and new structural materials.
25
*****What are sugars stored as?
Starch
26
****Carbohydrates also can make cellulose which forms what?
Cell walls
27
Why is photosynthesis important for animals?
It's their source of energy.
28
*****What are the two ways animals use photosynthesis?
1. When an animal eats a plant, it takes in the carbohydrates stored in the plant. 2. Breathing oxygen
29
After the plants and animals get the energy they need from carbohydrates, it is released during what?
Cellular respiration
30
When is the energy in carbohydrates released?
When the cells of organisms use oxygen to break down the sugars
31
Photosynthesis and Respiration are what of each other?
Opposite
32
Where does cellular respiration occur?
In Mitochondria
33
Oxygen and sugar produced during photosynthesis do what?
Enter the cell and go into the mitochondria.
34
The oxygen is used to what?
Break down the stored carbohydrates to release energy.
35
The released energy is changed into a substance called what?
ATP
36
What is ATP?
ATP is like a battery that goes where the cell needs energy. ATP is constantly being charged.
37
What are released as products of respiration?
Carbon dioxide and water
38
What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?
Combining Sugar + Oxygen to produce Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy
39
What shape does the vein actually have as it exists inside of a leaf?
Tube
40
Does the diagram cell show the guard cell as different from the epidermis? Explain.
Xxxx
41
Which substances enter the chloroplast? Which substance leave? How can you tell?
Water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide enter into the chloroplast. Oxygen and sugar leave the chloroplast.
42
What part of the leaf is made up of xylem and phloem tissue?
Vein
43
Suppose you didn't water a plant for 2 weeks. Would you expect the stomata to be open or closed? Explain.
Closed. They close the stomata to save water.
44
Why do plants need leaves?
To get carbon dioxide
45
During what time of the day are chloroplast able to carry out photosynthesis? Explain.
During the day. They need sunlight to carry out photosynthesis
46
What do chloroplast produce when they perform photosynthesis?
Sugar and oxygen
