Photosynthesis, Respiration And Transpiration

Front 1

Stomata

Back 1

Tiny openings or holes in the plant used for the exchange of gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen

Front 2

Guard Cell

Back 2

These open and close the stomata

Front 3

Chlorophyll

Back 3

A green pigment in all plants responsible for the absorption of sunlight

Front 4

Chloroplast

Back 4

The place in a plant cell where photosynthesis happens

Front 5

Sunlight

Back 5

Solar energy absorbed by chlorophyll necessary for photosynthesis

Front 6

Glucose

Back 6

The result of carbon dioxide, water and sunlight in photosynthesis which provides food and energy for the plant

Front 7

Oxygen

Back 7

A colorless, odorless gas released during photosynthesis

Front 8

Xylem

Back 8

Tubes in the stem of plants used to transport water throughout the plant

Front 9

Phloem

Back 9

Tubes in the stem of the plant used to transport glucose or sugar to provide energy to the plant

Front 10

Carbon Dioxide

Back 10

A colorless, odorless gas absorbed by plants during photosynthesis

Front 11

Water

Back 11

Absorbed through the root and a necessary ingredient of photosynthesis

Front 12

Photosynthesis

Back 12

The process by which carbon dioxide, water and sunlight are converted into glucose and oxygen by green plants

Front 13

Cellular Respiration

Back 13

Oxygen and glucose are broken down in cells providing energy for animals. Animals breathe out carbon dioxide as a waste.
