Heterotrophs_______ get their energy from "eating others." consumers of other organisms. consume organic molecules.
Autotrophs________ get their energy from "self." get their energy from sunlight. use light energy to synthesize organic molecules .
transferred, created, destroyedEnergy can only be _______, not _______ or _____.
Photoautotrophs__________ make food by using light energy, AKA photosynthesis.
autotrophs, heterotrophsThe ________ are: all plants, plant-like protists, and some bacteria. Everything else are ________.
Heterotrophs_______ need to eat glucose, they don't have the organelles that make glucose.
carbohydrate, organic compoundsGlucose is a _______ which is a monosaccharide, which is one of the four groups of ________.
Heterotrophsconsumers, animals, fungi, most bacteria
Autotrophsproducers, plants, photosynthetic bacteria
Heterotrophs______ make energy & organic molecules from ingesting organic molecules
Autotrophs______ make energy & organic molecules from light energy
glucose, energy dioxide_______ + oxygen --> carbon + water + _______
6O₂, ATPC₆H₁₂O₆ + _____ --> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ______
water, oxygencarbon dioxide + _____ + energy --> glucose + _____
light energy, C₆H₁₂O₆6CO₂ + 6H₂O + _____ --> ________ + 6O₂
respirationSo, in effect, photosynthesis is _____ run backwards powered by light.
Cellular Respiration_______ oxidizes C₆H₁₂O₆ --> CO₂ & produce H₂O, fall of electrons downhill to O₂, exergonic
Photosynthesis________ reduces CO₂ --> C₆H₁₂O₆ & produce O₂, boost electrons uphill by splitting H₂O, Endergonic
respirationEverything under goes _____ , even plants.
glucose, ATPPlants also have to break down ____ in order to get energy out of ____.
Plants_____ collect light energy and transform it into chemical energy
light energy, savedPlants store ______ in a stable form to be moved around the plant
building block, C H O N P SPlants need to get ______ atoms from
organic moleculesPlants produce all ________ needed for growth.
carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleic acidsName the four groups of organic molecules.
energy, Chlorophyll, respiration, starchPlants have to collect the ______ from the light. _______ collects the sunlight, chlorophyll is in the chloroplasts. The plants will use all the light. It will store it in the bonds of glucose. Some of it will break down in _______ for their own energy. Then they store the extra glucose they don't use as _____.
sunlightleaves = solar collectors of ______
CO₂stomates = gas exchange of ______
H₂O, nutrients_______ and _______ uptake from roots
leafThe _____ is the solar panel of the plant.
cuticle, lipids, water lossOn the top of the leaf is the_____, waxy layer that is made of______, triglycerides. The function is to prevent________.
stomata, waterOn the top of the leaf is a few________, but not a lot. You can't have a lot since the ______ would escape.
transpirationThe sun can take out the water from the leaf through evaporation called_________.
hydrogen bondsThe water molecules are trapped together from the_________, which is connected through the polar ends.
chlorophyllNext is the palisade mesophyll, which is crammed with_______. It attracts a lot of sunlight since its on top.
gassesThe spongy mesophyll is where the _______ change places, the oxygen & carbon dioxide.
tissues, waterNext is the lower epidermis which protects the _______ in between and prevents _______ loss.
waterOn the bottom is many more stomata. But it won't let a lot of _______ escape the leaf since its on the bottom and not directly towards the sun.
Chloroplasts________ contain double membrane, stroma, thylakoid sacs, grana stacks.
Chlorophyll, ETC_______ & _______ in thylakoid membrane. H⁺ gradient built up within thylakoid sac
30-40, 2-4A typical mesophyll cell has_____ chloroplasts, each about _____ microns by 4-7 microns long.
stromaEach chloroplast has two membranes around a central aqueous space, called the ______.
thylakoidIn the stroma are membranous sacs, the_______.
lumen, spaceThese have an internal aqueous space, called the thylakoid ______ or thylakoid_____.
granasThylakoids may be stacked into columns called_______.
cholorplastsThe ___________ are only found in plants and the plant-like protists.
membranesOn the chloroplasts, there are two_______. This is a tiny membrane. It is where photosynthesis takes place.
thylakoidEach little green disk is called a________.
phospholipid, lumenThe membrane of thylakoid is a _______. In side it there's a space and is called a______.
granaThe entire stack of thylakoids is called a ______.
chlorophyllThe thylakoids, which is the grana, contain the pigment _______. Their job is to collect sunlight.
surface area, photosynthesisThe grana membranes are stacked for two reasons, to give a greater_________ for photosynthesis to take place on, if more _________ takes place, the more glucose. Everything is designed so it can best carry out it's function.
thylakoidLight reactions take place in the_________ membranes.
stromaThe filling in the space in the thylakoid is a liquid called the_______.
dark reactionsThe__________ occur in the stroma.
magnesiumIn the center of the chlorophyll is__________.
