Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration WebQuest
Unravel the secrets of photosynthesis and cellular respiration!
Photo Use the link (What is Photosynthesis) to access information about photosynthesis then answer the following questions. What is Photosynthesis Where on the plant does photosynthesis take place? leafThe energy from the sun enters into what organelle in the plant? chloroplastHow does the plant get water for photosynthesis? rootWhat gas enters the plant for photosynthesis? carbon dioxideWhere does it enter the plant? stomataWhat gas exits the plant during photosynthesis? oxygenWhere does it exit the plant? stomataWhat is the overall equation for photosynthesis? CO2 + H20 {yields} C6H12O6 + O2 The Biology Place Overview of Photosynthesis Diagram Type the word in each blank that would complete the diagram. Spelling counts! sunlight carbon dioxide water carbohydrate oxygen Biology in Motion Use the link (What is ATP) to access information about ATP. Look for the link that says ATP and Energy Storage and click it. Answer the following questions. What is ATP? How does energy get converted from food molecules to muscles? ATPAccording to the web page, the analogy for ATP is that ATP works like a rechargeable batteryClick on the arrow to the next page. Pull apart the ice cream. What happens when food is broken down in the body? ATP is formedWhat happens when ATP is used? molecules are synthesized create and edit documents online, for free. Cellular Respiration Mitochondria What are the reactants, or starting molecules, of cellular respiration? glucose and oxygenWhat are the products, or ending molecules, of cellular respiration? carbon dioxide, water, and ATPThis is the process cells use to break stored energy down into usable energy.Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell.Identify the energy source mitochondria use for cellular respiration. glucoseIdentify the energy rich molecule mitochondria create during cellular respiration. ATPIdentify the site of cellular respiration. mitochondria Welcome to CK-12 Foundation Connecting Photosynthesis Cellular Respiration Match the cellular process to its function. Photosynthesis process of creating stored energy in the form of glucose using sunlight Cellular Respiration process of creating usable energy in the form of ATP from glucose The products of one process are the reactants that start the other. It is a cycle. Click and drag the statement to the correct cellular process. Photosythesis occurs in the chloroplast produces oxygen uses water relies directly on the sun only plants do this process the goal of this process is to make glucose uses carbon dioxide Cellular Respiration occurs in the mitochondria uses oxygen uses glucose produces carbon dioxide produces ATP plants and animals do this process the goal of this process is to make ATP Identify the section of the cycle that represents photosynthesis and the section that represents cellular respiration.
