ENGAGE:

Watch this video about the importance of photosynthesis, then answer the question.
2
Essential Questions
You will be able to answer:

  • How do photosynthesizers capture and store the energy of the sun?
  • How do organisms gain energy from carbohydrates?
  • How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration responsible for cycling of matter?
  • How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration contribute to the flow of energy?
The Learning Goals:

  • I can demonstrate how photosynthesis transforms light energy into stored chemical energy.
  • I can list the inputs and outputs of photosynthesis.
  • I can list the inputs and outputs of cellular respiration.
Question 1

Question 11
11.

Using a sheet of paper, create your own original infographic model of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. It must contain the following aspects:
  • Inputs (also called reactants) and outputs (also called products) for cellular respiration
  • Inputs (also called reactants) and outputs (also called products) for photosynthesis
You may include pictures, chemical symbols, and/or words to represent the inputs and outputs.
Once finished, turn it into the correct tray.
