photosynthesis | the process by which plants use light to make food |
pigments | colored chemical compounds that capture light energy |
chlorophyll | the main pigment found in chloroplasts |
photosynthesis equation | use carbon dioxide & water to make glucose and oxygen |
photosynthesis raw materials | carbon dioxide and water |
photosynthesis products | glucose and oxygen |
stomata | openings on the bottom of leaves |
light energy | causes a chemical change to take place in plants |
Why is photosynthesis important? | gives plants food & animals food and oxygen |
cellular respiration | the process by which animals use food to get energy |
mitochondria | where respiration mostly takes place |
cellular respiration equation | use glucose & oxygen to make carbon dioxide & water & ENERGY |
cellular respiration raw materials | glucose and oxygen |
cellular respiration products | carbon dioxide, water & ENERGY |
Why is cellular respiration important? | gives animals energy & plants carbon dioxide |
fermentation | a process by which cells get energy without using oxygen |
alcoholic fermentation | yeast and sugar react to create alcohol and carbon dioxide |
lactic acid fermentation | cells run out of oxygen and fill up with lactic acid |
uses of alcoholic fermentation | bakers and brewers |
