3. Key Objectives:
The student will:
– Investigate and understand the
physical and chemical process of
cellular respiration and its
importance to plant and animal
life
4. Key Objectives:
The student will:
– Use words or chemical equations
to compare and contrast the
processes of photosynthesis and
respiration in terms of raw
materials required, products
produced and cellular organelles
involved
5. Cellular Respiration
The process in which all living
things including plants obtain
energy stored in food
7. Essential Learnings
All livings turn food into energy
through a process called
cellular respiration
8. Essential Learnings
Cellular respiration is a
chemical process that occurs in
an organelle called the
mitochondria of each cell of a
living organism
9. Essential Learnings
In the mitochondria, glucose
molecules are combined with
Oxygen to release energy and
produce Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
and Water (H2O)
14. Essential Learnings
During respiration Oxygen is
used and Carbon Dioxide is
given off to the environment
where it becomes available for
producers to use again
15. Essential Learnings
Matter, in this case Oxygen and
Carbon Dioxide is recycled
This is known as The Oxygen
Carbon Dioxide Cycle
– Part of the Carbon Cycle
