Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Glucose		The process of breaking a substance down into smaller parts of organic matter, the process of decay
Decomposition		A biological process that produces ethanol and CO2 by the conversion of sugars into cellular energy in the absence of O2 - generally used by yeast and bacteria

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)		An interaction between organisms where one organism captures and consumes the other
Photosynthesis		Energy stored in chemical bonds, can be used in a chemical reaction
Population		A monosaccharide sugar, C6H12O6, that is produced in photosynthesis and used during cellular respiration for energy production
Element		All water on earth; including oceans, surface water, groundwater, and glaciers

Which of the following describes a survival advantage an individual organism derives from living in a large group with other members of the same species

Glucose produced as a result of photosynthesis is made up of which of the following elements?

Hydrogen (H), Magnesium (Mg), Carbon (C)

Hydrogen (H), Carbon (C), Oxygen (O)

Carbon (C), Nitrogen (N), Oxygen (O)

Hydrogen (H), Nitrogen (N), Calcium (Ca)

Which of the following best summarizes the flow of matter and energy in cellular respiration?

Energy is consumed to rearrange carbon dioxide and water molecules into glucose and oxygen.

Carbon and energy are required to transform sugar molecules into water molecules

As oxygen and carbon dioxide are used, energy and glucose are consumed.

As living systems use energy they transform matter. All of these matter transformations are the result of living systems:

recombining elements in different ways to form new products

changing inorganic elements into new elements that are useful

removing the electric charge on elements to get energy

creating new molecules and destroying old ones
