(17 cards)
How do plants get glucose for cellular respiration
Photosynthesis
Where and What does chlorophyll do and the step
Step 1
absorbs energy from sun by green chlorophyll in chloroplasts
Where and What does stomata do and the step
Takes CO2 from atmosphere, found under leaves
Step 2
What do roots do
Take up water from soil
Step 3
Photosynthesis equation
6 CO2 + 6 H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Where equation happens
Chloroplast-only in plant cells
Do all plants have photosynthetic cells
No, only leaves
Phloem function
Transport glucose to other parts of plant
Xylem function
Transports water from roots to rest of plant
How plants get glucose at night
Store it as starch
How plants get oxygen during day
from photosynthesis and atmosphere
How plants get oxygen at night
Only use oxygen from atmosphere
Do all plants have mitochondria
Yes
Top side of leaf role
Take sunlight for photosynthesis, has more chloroplasts
Bottom side of leaf role
Controls gas exchange, has stomata
What are guard cells
Open and close stomata
How roots get oxygen
air gaps in soil
