What is the WORD EQUATION FOR PHOTOSYNTHESIS?
COW > GO
GO> WEC
What is the full word equation for Phot.?
Water + C02= Glucose + Oxygen
Glucose + Oxygen = Water + Energy + C02
BIOMASS
The Mass of the materiaaaals that PLANTS and ANIMALS are made of!
What is the FIRST substance that plants make?
GLUCOSE ( A type of Sugar)
The glucose is...
Changed into other substances!
The mass of all the materials in a plant or animal is called the
BIOMASS
Plants need?
Warmth and Minerals
A plant can live without...
SOIL (as long as there is water)
Plants need ______ to make their OWN FOOD.
-Water
-CO2




Most photosynthesis occurs in the
PALISADE CELLSSSS
A STOMA is...
A space between the cells.
List all the cells we learned about in a leaf.
- Epidermal Cells.
- Palisade Cells
- Guard Cells.
- Spongy Mesophyll Cells.


Epidermal cells have...
NO CHOLORPLASTS.
Why is the cuticle of a plant cell waxy?
So that its waterproof, so it stops water from evaporating at the top of a leaf!
What is chlorophyll?
Chlorophyll is a green substance in LEAVES that ABSORBS LIGHT.
Without light...
There is no photosynthesis.
Why does a root hair cell have tiny root hairs all over its surface?
So that it covers a large surface area of the soil.
Name the parts of a cell (root hair)
CYTOPLASM
CELL MEMBRANE
NUCLEUS
VACUOLE


Water goes into the ROOT HAIR CELLS by the process of....
OSMOSIS (DIFFUSION OF WATER)
Water helps by keeping plants..
RIGID.
Roots take in...
DISSOLVED MINERALS IN WATER (NITRATES)
Why is floding BAD for the plant?!
Not enough Oxygen, suffocates :(
Plants produce...
OXYGEN.
GLUCOSE CAN BE CONVERTED TO...
-PROTEINS
-MAKING STARCH
-FATS&OILS
-CELLULOSE CELL WALL
-SUGERS (EG FRUCTOSE)



Sucrose is the form...
C02 + H20 > C6H12O6
Some of the Glucose is used to
RELEASE ENERGYYYYY
What is the use of water in plants?
-Cell growth
-Firms cells
-Forming Fruits
-Cooling Leaves


No Light > No photosynthesis...

>No starch produced > Iodine stays YELLOW.
Light > Photosynthesis>...
>Produce starch > Iodine turns BLUE/BLACK.
FOUR THINGS AFFECTING PHOTOSYNTHESIS:
1 LIGHT -more light, more phot.
2 WATER -little water, slows it down.
3 TEMPERATURE -Optimum temp 30c
4 CO2 LEVELS - Increases, increases growth.


WORD EQUATION FOR RESPIRATION
SUGAR + OXYGEN > CARBON DIOXIDE + WATER + ENERGY
The light energy needed for phot. is trappped by?
CHLOROPHYLL.
STARCH is needed to
RELEASE ENERGY DURING RESPIRATION AND TO MAKE NEW MATERIALS.
PLANTS NEED NITRATES TO MAKE...
PROTEINS (REPAIR)
Most photosynthesis happens at the
TOP OF THE LEAF ^
Respiration, rotting, and burning all release
CO2
Humans are part of a complex _________
_
FOOD WEB.
Humans need to protect _______and the e________
Food webs and the environment.
How do humans manage crop production?

-Using Fertilizers
-Using Irrigation
-Reducing Destructions!!!

Human development can
a) harm the environment
b) help us dance
c) improve with the environment


HARM THE ENVIRONMENT.
A


HUMAN DEVELOPMENT can be SUSTAINABLE IF WEEE...?
PREVENT POLLUTION

PRESERVE HABITATS

MAINTAIN BIODIVERSITY



HUMANS > ___________ > _______-
HUMANS > ANIMALS > PLANTS.
Plants make food using
CO2
WATER
MINERALS
SUNLIGHT!


The Environment affects plant growth, how?
If there is no CO2, little water and little minerals, the plant is unhealty
-PESTS can be more likely to come
-WEEDS are more likely to grow



Why do farmers use pesticide?
So they can produce
-more food and make more profit
-undamaged food, higher price

What is BIACCUMULATION?
It is when a disease is passed on.
PESTICIDES
-Get into nearby bodies of water
- Water plants and animals absorb the chemicals
- Small fish eat the tiny plants and animals and they store the chemical.
- Larger fish and animals eat the small fish and they store the disease.
- Chemical amount increases because larger animals eat larger amounts of the small food.





What do pests do?
They eat FARMERS CROPS.
A weedkiller is...
A chemical that kills weeds.
A weed is
A fast growing plant that is growing where it is unwanted.
Weeds take a lot of time and effort to remove.
TRUE.
ONLY GREEN PLANTS MAKE
FOOD
Word equation for plants making proteins?
Glucose + Minerals>>>>Energy from Respiration>>>Amino ACIDS >>>>Energy from resp. >>>>PROTEINS
What are the two types of FERTILIZERS?
-NATURAL (cow manure, made naturally, cheaper, organic farmer)
AND
-CHEMICAL (expensive, unnatural)

POLLUTION LEVELS INCREASE ALONG THE FOOD CHAIN
TRUE
rESPIRATION
Release ENGERGYY
Heated Green houses are expensive to
Heat up in the winters.
Which part of a cell is ONLY for plants????
-CHLOROPLAST
-CELL WALL
-CYTOPLASM
