1
New cards
what is energy
the ability to do work
2
New cards
what is energy used for in living things
growth, development, and movement
3
New cards
what does it mean to transform energy
converting it from one form to another
4
New cards
where does all energy come from?
sun
5
New cards
what is an autotroph
an organism that makes its own food
6
New cards
what is a heterotroph
an organism that cannot make its own food, and has to rely on eating to survive
7
New cards
what is metabolism
sum of all chemical reactions in the body
8
New cards
what is the relationship between energy and metabolism
breaking chemical bonds (metabolism) creates chemical energy
9
New cards
what two organelles perform energy transformations in eukaryotic cells
mitochondria and chloroplasts
10
New cards
what materials does a plant need to take in to make sugar by photosynthesis
carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
11
New cards
what do plants make as waste that is useful for us
oxygen
12
New cards
what are stomata
small openings on a leaf through which oxygen and carbon dioxide can move
13
New cards
which reactant of photosynthesis diffuses into the leaf through stomata
carbon dioxide (CO2)
14
New cards
which product of photosynthesis diffuses out of the leaf through stomata
oxygen (O2)
15
New cards
how does a plant use the glucose it makes
\-used immediately to provide energy source for respiration

\
\-energy used to turn sugars, nitrates and other nutrients into amino acids to build proteins

\
\-makes cellulose, structure of cell wall

\
\-energy stored as starch (in leaves, seeds, roots etc)

\
\-energy stores as sucrose (fruit)

\
\-make fats and oils (energy stored in seeds)

\
\-raw material for growth, repair, and replacement of damaged parts
16
New cards
how do heterotrophs make energy (from their food)
cellular respiration
17
New cards
how do autotrophs obtain energy
photosynthesis
18
New cards
what is the name of the molecule that provides chemical energy in our cells
adenosine triphosphate or atp
19
New cards
what is meant by the 3 in triphosphate?
3 phosphate groups
20
New cards
when atp breaks off its third phosphate, it \_____________ energy.
releases
21
New cards
when a third phosphate group is added back to adp, it \______________ energy
stores
22
New cards
what is atp called with it only has 2 phosphate groups
adp
23
New cards
what is atp made of
adenine, ribose, 3 phosphate groups
24
New cards
which organelle in eukaryotic cells is responsible for making atp
mitochondria
25
New cards
which macromolecule is the main food source for atp
carbohydrates
26
New cards
how many bonds does glucose have
24
27
New cards
define cellular respiration
process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
