3. In an ecosystem, organisms need a balance
environment.
A balance ecosystem is on which living
thing and non-living thing interacting
harmoniously.
If any part of the ecosystem is disturbed,
other will also be affected.
9. In order to sustain life,
all organisms require
energy, but not all of
them can use light
energy directly for life
activities.
10. To provide the
energy needed by all
organisms, plants
and other
chlorophyll-bearing
organisms capture
the energy of
sunlight and convert
it into chemical
energy stored in the
food.
11. When people and other
heterotrophic organisms eat
food from producers and
consumers, chemical energy
stored from food is transferred
to their bodies.
12. How do plants manufacture their
own food?
What are the factors that affect the
rate of photosynthesis?
How do cells convert stored energy
in food into chemical energy?
How do materials and energy flow
in the ecosystem?
20. Plants have
two different types of transport
tissue. Xylem transports water
and solutes from the roots to
the leaves, phloem transports
food from the leaves to the rest
of the plant.
21. - the process by
which water
evaporates from
the leaves, which
results in more
water being
drawn up from
the roots.
22. The chlorophyll
is built into
the
membranes of
the
thylakoids.
Chlorophyll
absorbs white
light but it
looks green.
24. White light is consists of
three primary colors: red, blue,
and green. Only red and blue
light is absorbed thus making
these colors unavailable to be
seen by our eyes while the green
light is reflected which makes
the chlorophyll looks green.
25. However, it is the
energy from red light
and blue light that are
absorbed and will be
used in
photosynthesis.
26. The green light that we
can see is not
absorbed by the plant
and thus, cannot be
used in
photosynthesis.
29. happens in the presence of light.
occurs in the thylakoid membrane
converts light energy to chemical
energy.
Water-one of the raw materials of
photosynthesis-is utilized during
this stage
Water also facilitates the formation
of free electrons and oxygen
30. The energy harvested during
this stage is stored in the form of
ATP (Adenosine
Triphosphate) and NADPH
( Nicotinamide Adenine
Dinucleotide Phosphate
Hydrogen). These products will
be needed in the next stage to
complete photosynthetic process.
31. takes place in the stroma
converts Carbon dioxide (CO2)
into sugar.
does not directly need light but
needs the products of light
reaction.
it occurs immediately after the
light-dependent phase.
32.
33. Plants have green pigments
called chlorophyll stored in the
chloroplast. This pigment aids in
capturing light energy from the
sun that enables plants to change
it into chemical energy stored in
the food. This process is called
photosynthesis.
34. Stomata are found on the lower
surface of the leaf that allows the
entrance of carbon dioxide
needed for photosynthesis. They
also serve as exit point for the
oxygen produced during
photosynthesis.
37. RECALL!
Respiration is the process of
taking oxygen from the air and
cycling it through the lungs,
which then gives oxygen to
blood to be used in the body.
The carbon dioxide waste is
expelled out of the lungs.
38. Cellular respiration uses
glucose or sugars, from
food molecules and turns
them into carbon dioxide,
water, and ATP a
nucleotide essential to the
body.
