1.During photosynthesis, plants absorb light energy from the
Sun and convert it into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Which
compounds combine in the presence of sunlight to form glucose?
carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H2)
oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2)
carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O)
oxygen (O2) and water (H2O)
Living organisms and artificial devices both use and store energy with various methods and structures. Which of the following is MOST like a green leaf during the daytime?
a person running along a track
a solar collector charging a battery
a person eating a hamburger at lunch time
a wind turbine generating electric current as it spins
A blueberry bush uses energy from the Sun to make carbohydrates. Which set of energy transformations BEST describe this process?
radiant energy → chemical energy → nuclear energy
radiant energy → nuclear energy → chemical energy
nuclear energy → radiant energy → chemical energy
nuclear energy → chemical energy → radiant energy
The following reaction occurs in plants.
CO2+water + sunlight→O2+water+sugar
This reaction is beneficial to plants because it
results in a net increase in the mass of the atoms.
produces chemical building blocks for proteins.
keeps ultraviolet light from damaging their cells
provides chemical energy to the cells.
Which BEST describes the role of chlorophyll in energy conversion?
Chlorophyll converts chemical energy into radiant energy.
Chlorophyll excites photons of light energy and stores them.
Chlorophyll converts oxygen and nutrients in order to drive metabolic activities.
Chlorophyll absorbs light and converts it to chemical energy.
Plants make sugars in the presence of sunlight in a process called photosynthesis. What form of carbon do the plants take in for this process?
glucose molecule
carbon dioxide
single carbon atoms
complex organic compounds
When plants undergo photosynthesis, a reaction produces sugar, oxygen, and water. During respiration, stored energy from the products of photosynthesis is converted to usable energy. In what form is the energy stored prior to use in respiration?
chemical energy
kinetic energy
light energy
heat energy
During the light reactions of photosynthesis, energy is stored in the compounds ATP and NADPH. A second set of reactions uses this stored energy to produce vital compounds such as glucose. This second set of reactions involves a biochemical pathway called
the Calvin cycle.
carbon fixation.
respiration.
transpiration
Which of the following statements best describes this graph?
Maximum glucose and oxygen production lies within an ideal temperature range.
Temperature does not affect glucose production.
Temperature only affects glucose production, oxygen production stays the same.
Temperature is the dependent variable when considering rate of photosynthesis.
Which of the following is the correct structure of ATP?
How does ATP provide energy for the cell?
The bond between the first and second phosphate is broken to release energy.
The bond between the adenine and the sugar is broken to release energy.
The bond between the sugar and phosphates are broken and release energy.
The bond between the second and third phosphate are broken to release energy.
