9th Grade Plant part, Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Spongy Mesophyll

The ________ is where gas exchange occurs from stomata.

Stems

________ contain vascular bundles of xylem cells that carry water and minerals up, and phloem cells carry food down and support leaves & reproductive structures (flowers, cones, etc)

Fermentation

________ occurs in yeast & bacteria.

Roots Anchor plant

________, carry water and minerals in from soil, reproduce, and store food.

Xylem carries water

The ________ absorbed by the plants roots up into the leaf.

Cells

________ are spaced loosely.

Cuticle

The ________ is a waxy waterproof coating on the leafs upper surface.

Mitochondria

The ________ is the site of respiration (powerhouse of the cell)

Plants

________ are a primary source of food for people and animals.

Respiration

________ is making usable energy from food (Making ATP)

Photosynthesis

________ is the process in which chlorophyll and light energy convert CO2 and H2O into sugar /glucose (and release oxygen); makes food for the plant.

Carbon dioxide

________ & water are the waste products /byproducts of aerobic respiration.

ATP

It breaks down glucose to synthesize ________.

ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION

________ does not require oxygen and is less efficient; only 2 ATP produced.

AEROBIC RESPIRATION

________ requires oxygen.

Epidermis

The ________ is the top and bottom layer of cells.

Palisade Layer

The ________ is the layer of cells where most photosynthesis occurs.

Stomata

The ________ is the openings usually on bottom of leaves.

aerobic respiration equation

The ________ is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H20 + energy.

Photosynthesis Equation

The ________ is 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Anaerobic respiration signals

________ muscle fatigue.

fermentation

With no oxygen, respiration can only occur through glycolysis only or ________.

Cells

________ are arranged in columns.
