Unit 5 Review: Energy in Organisms - Due on Friday, Jan 5th by 8:00 am

Learning Targets:
I can:
1. Identify the structures of a plant including the roots, stem (vascular tissue), and leaves, and describe their role in maintaining plant homeostasis.
2. Identify the structures of the leaf including the mesophyll tissue, vascular tissue (xylem and phloem), and the stomata, and describe their function and role in maintaining plant homeostasis.
3. Describe how a plant’s response to it’s environment (gravity, light) helps it maintain homeostasis.
4. Compare and Contrast photosynthesis and cell respiration in terms of:
a. the cells and organelles they occur in
b. the reactants and the products (both chemical formulas and words)
c. the flow of energy (energy input vs. energy released for use)
5. Identify the structures of an animal (human) used in the circulatory and respiratory system including the heart, arteries, veins, blood, and lungs, and describe their functions.
6. Describe the function of the circulatory and respiratory system in maintaining homeostasis in the body including changes in breathing and pulse rates.
7. Describe the movement of carbon through ecosystems in terms of it’s location (in organisms or the atmosphere and the role of photosynthesis, respiration.
8. Describe the effect of human activity on the carbon cycle in terms of burning of carbon (wood/fuel).
9. Explain the role of respiration and photosynthesis in the ecosystem food chains and energy pyramids in terms of capture of energy, creation of food, and loss of energy through use of food.
