_____ and ____ depend on _____ for the carbohydrates they need to
support respiration and growth. (plant organs) - ANSWER-stems,
roots, leaves
__% of the sun's output is outside the visible range and unavailable
for photosynthesis. - ANSWER-60
"photo" means
"synthesis" means - ANSWER-"light"
"To make"
2 types of mycorrhizae? - ANSWER-ectomycorrhizae- cause roots to
become short and branched
arbuscular mycorrhizae- bond with roots and extend into soil to create
a dense network
Calvin Cycle - ANSWER-a 3 step process that uses CO2 to synthesize
carbohydrates
, carnivorous plants - ANSWER-obtain nutrients from insects
Chlorophyll light absorption - ANSWER-z-scheme; absorption of visible
light by an antenna chlorophyll results in the transfer of energy to an
electron in a neighboring chlorophyll molecule
cross section of a stem - ANSWER-
Define photosynthesis - ANSWER-major pathway by which energy and
carbon are incorporated into carbohydrates
Drawback of using CAM photosynthesis? - ANSWER-more energy
usage
epiphytes - ANSWER-Photosynthetic plants that grow on other trees,
absorb nutrients from rainwater, dust and detritus
Excess carbohydrates are stored as - ANSWER-starch
formation of starch during the day provides ____ for photosynthetic
cells at night. - ANSWER-energy
Function of phloem - ANSWER-transports carbohydrates to non-
photosynthetic portions of a plant for growth and respiration
Function of the xylem - ANSWER-transport water and minerals from
roots to shoots
General equation for photosynthesis - ANSWER-CO2 + H2O+ ENERGY -
-> C6H12O6 + O2
How do guard cells work? - ANSWER-when water escapes the cells,
they shrink, causing the stomata to open. once the cell fills with water,
it will swell, causing the stomata too close.
