Biology 1:4-1
C6H12O6 is the formula of _______________
glucose
Many scientists would say that photosynthesis is the most important chemical process to life on Earth.
true
Mushrooms are fungi, and are classified as heterotrophs.
true
Only organisms that are classified as autotrophs can perform photosynthesis.
true
Photosynthesis can be described as a process that
uses carbon dioxide and water, with sunlight, to produce glucose and oxygen
Photosynthesis
uses the energy in sunlight to make food
Photosynthesis occurs in the _______________.
chloroplasts
The ability to do work
energy
A food chain shows how matter and energy flows from consumers to producers.
false
ATP is the form of energy used by the cell, as such ATP contains much more energy than a molecule of glucose.
false
Because you can microwave mac n' cheese, you are classified as a producer.
false
C6H12O6 + 6 O2 --> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O is the chemical reaction of photosynthesis.
false
Only plants can make organisms through photosynthesis.
false
Heterotrophs are living things that cannot make their own ____________.
food
Shows how energy and matter flow from producers to consumers
food chain
Stores chemical energy in a concentrated stable form
glucose
In the food chain grass --> grasshopper --> snake --> hawk, which organism(s) are the heterotrophs?
grasshopper, snake, and hawk
All animals and fungi and many single-celled organisms
heterotroph
_____________ get their food by eating other organisms.
heterotrophs
Photosynthesis is the process in which energy from __________ is transferred to glucose.
light
Process that stores energy from sunlight in the chemical bonds of glucose
photosynthesis
All forms of life require energy
true
Autotrophs are producers.
true
Glucose is a form of carbohydrate that stores energy in a stable form.
true
__________, water, and energy are the products of cellular respiration.
carbon dioxide
All organisms burn glucose to form _______ during cellular respiration.
ATP
Glucose and ___________ are the two types of molecules organisms use for energy.
ATP
Cellular respiration occurs in the __________________.
mitochondria
Glucose and _______ are the products of photosynthesis.
oxygen
Without photosynthesis, there would be no _____________ in the atmosphere.
oxygen
Also known as autotrophs
producer
The energy-carrying molecule that cells use for energy
ATP
Which of the following autotrophs is also a producer?
all autotrophs are producers
Which of the following statements is true about glucose and ATP? (1) Glucose is made during photosynthesis. (2) The energy in sunlight is temporarily stored in glucose before it is transferred to ATP. (3) ATP is the energy carrying molecule cells use for energy (4) The processes that make ATP and glucose also recycle oxygen in Earth's atmosphere.
all statements are true

autotroph
________ make their own "food".
autotrophs
The correct formula for photosynthesis is a. 6 CO2+ 6 O2 --> C6H12O6 + 6 H2O b. 6 CO2+ 6 H2O --> C6H12O6+ 6 O2 c. C6H12O6+ 6 O2 --> 6 CO2+ 6 H2O
b
Which of the following statements is true: (1) the products of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration (2) the products of cellular respiration are the reactants of photosynthesis.
both statements
Which statement best describe the relationship between a consumer and producer?
caterpillar eating a leaf
The process in which glucose is broken down and ATP is made
cellular respiration
_____________ is the process in which energy from glucose is transferred to ATP.
cellular respiration
Organism at the end of a food chain
consumers
Heterotrophs cannot make their own food.
