Click on the three things used to make glucose during photosynthesis.

What gas is made during photosynthesis?

A. oxygen (O2)

B. carbon dioxide (CO2)

C. hydrogen (H2)

D. Nitrogen 

The two steps of photosynthesis are the light dependent reaction and

A. Krebs Cycle

B. ETC

C. Glycolysis

D. Calvin Cycle (light independent reaction)

Plants get the __________ from the ground through its roots

Plants collect carbon dioxide from the

A. soil

B. air

C. water

The products of photosynthesis are (choose 2)

A. water

B. glucose

C. carbon dioxide

D. oxygen

The plant uses glucose used for

A. growth and energy

B. to make ATP

C. for reproduction

D. for cell division

The oxygen produced is

A. used by the plant

B. released into the air

C. used for cell divison

A student investigates the effects of sunlight intensity on the rate of photosynthesis. She places a plant in a closed container. She maintains the concentration of carbon dioxide and temperature (controls) but exposes the plant to different intensities of sunlight. She measures the rate at which oxygen is produced by the plant. 

Click on all of the controls of the experiment (hint there are 2)

Light Intensity

Temperature

CO2 Concentration

O2 Output Rate

What is the independent variable (what is changed by the scientist)?

Light intensity

Temperature

CO2 Concetration

O2 Output rate

What is the dependent variable (what was measured)?

Light intensity

Temperature

CO2 Concetration

O2 Output rate

What happened to the rate of oxygen output as the light intensity increased?

A. The amount of oxygen increased 

B. The amount of oxygen decreased

C. The amount of oxygen stayed the same

What is the relationship between light intensity and the rate of photosynthesis?

A. the rate of photosynthesis decreases with more sunlight

B. the rate of phosynthesis increases with more sunlight

C. there is no connection

A student decides to conduct a second experiment. She investigates the effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis. She changes the concentration of carbon dioxide but keeps the temperature and intensity of light the same. She measures the rate of oxygen produced by the plant.

Click on all of the controls in the experiment (kept the same)

Light Intensity

Temperature

CO2 Concentration

O2 Output Rate

What is the independent variable (what the scientist changed)?

Light intensity

Temperature

CO2 Concentration

O2 Output Rate

What is the dependent variable (what was measured)

Light intensity

Temperature

CO2 Concentration

O2 Output Rate

What happens to the oxygen output rate as the amount of carbon dioxide increases?

A. as carbon dioxide increases, the amount of oxygen produced increses

B. as carbon dioxide increases, the amount of oxygen produced decreases

C. there is no relationship

How might oxygen output rate be impacted in this investigation if the light intensity was kept constant at 10% instead of 40%?

A. more oxygen would be produced

B. less oxygen would be produced

C. there would be no change

What is photosynthesis?
