In which cell organelle does photosynthesis occur?

chloroplasts

What are the three reactants needed for photosynthesis?

light, carbon dioxide, and water

What are two products of photosynthesis?

glucose and oxygen

In what cell organelle does cellular respiration occur?

mitochondria

What are two reactants needed for cellular respiration?

glucose and oxygen

what is cellular respiration

the process where cells break down food (like glucose) using oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP, which fuels cellular activities

What are three products of cellular respiration?

ATP, carbon dioxide, and water

What four substances are recycled during photosynthesis and respiration?

Carbon dioxide, water, oxygen, and glucose

What is the one component in photosynthesis that is not recycled and must be constantly available?

light energy (sunlight)

Are chloroplasts found in most plant cells?

Yes because it's needed to perform photosynthesis

Are mitochondria found in most plant cells?

Yes because they generate ATP via cellular respiration

Are chloroplasts found in animal cells?

No because animals can't photosynthesize

Are mitochondria found in animal cells?

yes because animals go through cellular respiration via breathing

"Plants can survive on their own, because they make their own food. Animals can't survive on their own but need plants for survival." Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?

Yes because animals require plants as their food source because they can't make their own food. Plants on the other hand, are able to do this via photosynthesis and can survive without the aid of other organisms.

what is the 10% rule?

when energy is passed in an ecosystem from one trophic level to the next, only 10% of the energy will be passed on

what is a trophic level?

the position an organism occupies in a food chain. trophic levels include producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, etc. Trophic levels are numbered.

what is an energy pyramid?

a model that shows the amount of energy in organisms available at each trophic level in an ecosystem.
