photosynthesis |
1. a process in which a cell captures energy in sunlight to make food. 2. occurs in chloroplast in plant cells . 3. during the process plants use carbon dioxide. |
|
|
clorophyll |
1.it is a green pigment. 2.the cell uses this energy to produce food and sugar. 3. it functions in a manner similar to that of the solar cells. |
|
|
chloroplast |
1.a structure in cells of plants and some and some other organisms that captures energy from sunlight. 2. it is a large green structure floating in the cytoplasm. 3.it captures energy from sunlight and uses it to produce food. |
|
|
glucose |
1.sugar 2. food 3.the water and carbon dioxide are transformed by the light energy. |
|
|
stomata |
1.small opening s on a leaf through which carbon dioxide and oxygen can move. 2.cell uses the captured energy to produce sugars. 3. in plants roots absorb water from the soil |
|
|
respiration |
1. is the process by which cells obtain energy in glucose. 2. food is broken down into energy. 3. it needs oxygen to breath. |
|
|
cellular respiration |
1. is a 2 stage process 2. needs oxygen to breath. 3. it is a process that takes place inside cells. |
|
|
mitochondria |
1. rod-shaped cell structure that converts energy into food molecules. 2. the cell can use to carry out its functions. 3. they are known as the powerhouses. |
|
|
ATP |
1. a lot of energy as chemical energy is produced for the cell to use in movement. 2. it is cell division also. 3. a lot of energy is used in this process. |
