1. Photosynthesis Chemical process in which green plants use energy in sunlight to convert carbon
dioxide and water into glucose
2. Chlorophyll Green pigment found in the chloroplast
3. Chloroplast An organelle found in plant and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs
4. What are the 1. Glucose( main product and type of sugar)= food for animals
requirements for 2. Oxygen ( by product and released into air)= breathe d by animals
photosynthesis?
5. How does photo- Carbon dioxide and water react to form glucose and oxygen but chlorophyll and
synthesis work? sunlight is needed for the reaction to occur
6. What happens to Plants use it to help with their life processes. Some is broken down to release
the make prod- energy and the rest is changed into compounds
uct(glucose) ?
7. What are the Sucrose, Starch and Cellulose
three types of
sugar?
8. Sucrose -2 sugar molecules joined
- form in which sugar is transported from one part of a plant to another
9. Starch -long chain of glucose molecules joined
- main form in which plants store energy
10. Cellulose -made up of linear chains of sugar
- provides structure and support in plants
11. What is cellular Process in which sugars are converted into usable energy(ATP)
respiration?
