Picture Word Definition *An organism that can make its own Autotroph food *Ex: plants, algae, photosynthetic organism

*An organism that cannot make its Heterotroph own food, it must eat other organisms. *Ex: animals, fungi, some protists

*Adenosine triphosphate ATP *energy for cells

ATP= charged battery

*The process of changing solar energy into Photosynthesis chemical energy stored in food. *Using sunlight to make sugar.

6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight  C6H12O6 + 6 O2

*Place where photosynthesis happens. Chloroplast *Found in plants

*The pigment found inside a chloroplast Chlorophyll that gives plants their green color *Absorbs the solar energy (sunlight)

*The process by which food is broken Cellular respiration down to release the energy. *Can occur with or without oxygen *All life can do this. Mitochondria *The organelle where aerobic respiration occurs. *Found in all eukaryotic cells (plants, animals, fungi and protists).

Aerobic respiration *Cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen. *Occurs within the mitochondria.

*Anaerobic respiration Fermentation *Cellular respiration when oxygen isn’t available. *Lactic acid fermentation produces sore muscles, yogurt, cheese *alcoholic fermentation produces alcohol and bread.

*What goes into a chemical reaction Reactants *The ingredients A + B

*What comes out of a chemical reaction Products *What is produced AB *The final product

*Vascular tissue in a plant that carries Xylem water from the roots to the rest of the plant. *Only moves water up

*Vascular tissue in a plant that carries food Phloem made in the leaves to the rest of the plant. *Can move food up and down

*The openings on the underside of leaves. Stomata (stoma) *Guard cells open and close stomata. *Regulates water loss and allows gas exchange.
