Q

Where are the chloroplasts of the cells located?

A

Underneath the epidermis

19
Q

What is the outermost layer of the leaf?

A

Epidermis

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?

A

Phloem

22
Q

What are excess sugars stored as in the plant?

A

Starch

23
Q

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

A

Carbohydrate

24
Q

**What are carbohydrates used for?

A

Energy stored as food and new structural materials.

25
Q

*****What are sugars stored as?

A

Starch

26
Q

**Carbohydrates also can make cellulose which forms what?

A

Cell walls

27
Q

Why is photosynthesis important for animals?

A

It’s their source of energy.

28
Q

*****What are the two ways animals use photosynthesis?

A
  1. When an animal eats a plant, it takes in the carbohydrates stored in the plant.
  2. Breathing oxygen
29
Q

After the plants and animals get the energy they need from carbohydrates, it is released during what?

A

Cellular respiration

30
Q

When is the energy in carbohydrates released?

A

When the cells of organisms use oxygen to break down the sugars

31
Q

Photosynthesis and Respiration are what of each other?

A

Opposite

32
Q

Where does cellular respiration occur?

A

In Mitochondria

33
Q

Oxygen and sugar produced during photosynthesis do what?

A

Enter the cell and go into the mitochondria.

34
Q

The oxygen is used to what?

A

Break down the stored carbohydrates to release energy.

35
Q

The released energy is changed into a substance called what?

A

ATP

36
Q

What is ATP?

A

ATP is like a battery that goes where the cell needs energy. ATP is constantly being charged.

37
Q

What are released as products of respiration?

A

Carbon dioxide and water

38
Q

What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?

A

Combining Sugar + Oxygen to produce Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy

39
Q

What shape does the vein actually have as it exists inside of a leaf?

A

Tube

40
Q

Does the diagram cell show the guard cell as different from the epidermis? Explain.

A

Xxxx

41
Q

Which substances enter the chloroplast? Which substance leave? How can you tell?

A

Water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide enter into the chloroplast. Oxygen and sugar leave the chloroplast.

42
Q

What part of the leaf is made up of xylem and phloem tissue?

A

Vein

43
Q

Suppose you didn’t water a plant for 2 weeks. Would you expect the stomata to be open or closed? Explain.

A

Closed. They close the stomata to save water.

44
Q

Why do plants need leaves?

A

To get carbon dioxide

45
Q

During what time of the day are chloroplast able to carry out photosynthesis? Explain.

A

During the day. They need sunlight to carry out photosynthesis

46
Q

What do chloroplast produce when they perform photosynthesis?

A

Sugar and oxygen
