Answer 3

covert nitrogen air into usable form.

Question 4

describe phytoplankton:

Answer 4

phytoplankton is important to fresh water ecosystems
main producers of oceans and lakes.

Question 5

What do humans have of both?

Answer 5

negative and positive interactions with microbes

Question 6

What are the negative interactions:

Answer 6

Red tide
pathogens
food and infrastructure

Question 7

describe each negative:
red tide

Answer 7

red tide: phytoplankton can reduce very quickly and produces toxins. For example, make shellfish poisonous.

Question 8

pathogens

Answer 8

cause diseases.
For example, food poisoning that can cause vomiting etc

Question 9

food and infrastructure

Answer 9

bacteria and microbes such as mold, can cause food to spoil

decomposers treat water or clean up spills

Question 16

Which 2 words does photosynthesis come from?

Answer 16

photo-light
synthesis- put together

Question 17

what do plant cells have?

Answer 17

chloroplasts

Question 18

describe chloroplasts:

Answer 18

capture energy from sun and convert into chemical energy for the plant

Question 19

What is photosynthesis?

Answer 19

chemical reaction

Question 20

What is photosynthesis equation

Answer 20

CO2 + H2O = C6 H12 O6 +O2

Question 21

Cellular respiration: What do both plant and animal cells have?

Answer 21

mitochondria

Question 22

where does cellular respiration take place in:

Answer 22

mitochondria

Question 23

process of photosynthesis

Answer 23

plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and absorb water from their roots.
uses energy from the sun to make sugar.
sugar is food for the plant.
oxygen is released into the air as a waste product

Question 24

Process of cellular respiration

Answer 24

it is a process that converts sugar and oxygen into carbon dioxide and water.
in this process energy is released and used to carry out life process

Question 25

chemical equation for cellular respiration:

Answer 25

C6 H12 O6 + O2 = CO2 + H2O

Question 26

relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration

Question 27

photosynthesis and cellular respiration work together and …

Answer 27

function in a cycle

Question 28

what do most living things depend on?

Answer 28

the cycle to survive

Question 29

describe photosynthesis

Answer 29

uses energy to make food

Question 30

describe cellular respiration

Answer 30

releases energy for life process

Answer 31

sugar and oxygen
cellular respiration

Question 32

plants and other organisms use the ______________ and ___________
produced by cellular respiration as a part of ______________________

Answer 32
