Unit 3 Chapter 11 Photosynthesis

What occurs during photosynthesis?

• Glucose and oxygen are turned into carbon dioxide and water

• Carbon dioxide and water are turned into glucose and oxygen

• Conversion of water to oxygen

• Conversion of ATP to ADP

Where does photosynthesis happen in plant cells?

• Mitochondria

• Nucleus

• Chloroplasts

• Ribosomes

What is the function of leaves in plants?

• Absorb water

• Store nutrients

• Conduct photosynthesis

• Anchor the plant

What is the function of roots in plants?

• Conduct photosynthesis

• Absorb water and nutrients

• Produce flowers

• Store sunlight

How is photosynthesis crucial for kingdoms outside of the plant kingdom?

• It provides oxygen and food

• It produces carbon dioxide

• It absorbs sunlight

• It creates soil

What happens to glucose after it's made?

• It is immediately used for photosynthesis

• Glucose is broken down in the process of cellular respiration

• It is converted to oxygen

• It is released as waste

What is starch made of?

• chains of proteins

• Chains of lipids

• Chains of glucose molecules

• Chains of amino acids

When is starch useful?

• When the organism needs an energy boost

• When the organism cannot create its own glucose

• To absorb water quickly

• To produce oxygen

ATP stands for
