Photosynthesis and Cell Respiration Webquest Name ______________________________Period______________________________Task One: Explore Photosynthesis:Go to the website for NOVA online: on LAUNCH INTERACTIVE next to the green picture. Click on the tab THE CYCLE at the top of the animation.31045151143000Click on the girl, click the water pot, and finally click on the window shade. Where is CO2 produced?Where is O2 produced?Click on the tab ATOMIC SHUFFLE at the top of the animation.Click the NEXT arrows to watch the process of photosynthesis molecularly.What is the overall equation (found at the end of the animation)?Click on the tab THREE PUZZLERS at the top of the animation.Answer the three questions and check your answers.A tree inhales carbon dioxide; it needs to if its to survive. But can it release enough O2 to keep just one person alive?A plant needs its own food to function. It can’t make its own food at night. Beyond a few hours of darkness, can a plant survive without light?A plant that receives the nutrition it needs will continue to live, we now know. But what if we took all of its O2 way? Do you think that the plant could still grow?Task Two: Explore Cellular RespirationGo to the website for Sumanas online: on THE BIG PICTURE tab at the bottom of the buffaloClick on the Subtitles tab at the bottom right and choose English Click on the Play arrow on the bottom left of the animation.What is the purpose of cellular respiration?Fill in the models below for cellular respiration and photosynthesis:CELLULAR RESPIRATIONINPUTOUTPUT++ +PHOTOSYNTHESISINPUTOUTPUT+ ++What is the energy output of respiration?What is the energy input of photosynthesis?Explain THREE similarities and/or differences of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. 1.2.3. TASK Three: GAME PLAY PRACTICEUse the link to access the Photosynthesis &Respiration Game. As you move through the game, answer thefollowing questions. HYPERLINK "" molecule does the fruit represent? ______________________The molecules you use in a chemical reaction are called the: ________________The molecules you produce in a chemical reaction are called the: _____________What are the reactants in respiration?What are the reactants in photosynthe2748915-1205230003813175-967105004102735-726440004992370-488950003206115-250825003206115-1333500sis?What are the products in cellular respiration?What are the products in photosynthesis?TASK Four: Photosynthesis/Cell Respiration Virtual Lab (STAGE 1 ONLY)Use the link to access the “Life Science Lab”. You will only be completeing STAGE 1, as you move thru the lab, answer the following questions. What provides the main energy source for photosynthesis? ___________________ In addition to sunlight, what else does the plant need in order to carry out the process of photosynthesis? ______________________ and _____________________ Which organelle in a plant cell carrier out photosynthesis? _____________________Chloroplasts use water and carbon dioxide to form a simple sugar called ____________________. After glucose is produced from water and carbon dioxide during photosynthesis what by product is left over? ______________________________True or False: BOTH plants and animals carry out the process of cellular respiration to energy from glucose. (CIRCLE ONE)What is the main energy source during cellular respiration? (Hint: It’s not the sun) _______________________TASK Five: Use your notes to answer the following questions What would happen to any organisms still living if all of the plants on the earth died rapidly? Explain your reasoning. Which organelle is responsible for the following processes…Photosynthesis:___________________Cellular Respiration:_______________What are the reactants and products of photosynthesis?Reactants:Products:What are the reactants and products of cellular respiration?Reactants:Produ3206115-250825003206115-1333500ctsWhich statement best describes the relationship between the products of photosynthesis and the reactants in cellular respiration? (STAAR 2015)AThe products of photosynthesis serve as the reactants in cellular respiration to provide chemical energy.BThe products of photosynthesis combine with the reactants in cellular respiration to remove ATP from cells.CThe products of photosynthesis inhibit the reactants in cellular respiration in the presence of light.DThe products of photosynthesis change the structure of the reactants in cellular respiration in the presence of light. ................
