What is made during photosynthesis?
Energy (glucose)
1 of 10
What do plants do with glucose?
Increase their biomass (grow)
2 of 10
What are the four things needed for photosynthesis?
Sunlight, Chlorophyll, Carbon dioxide and Water
3 of 10
Write out the word equation for photosynthesis:
Carbon dioxide + Water --> Glucose + Oxygen
4 of 10
What is the by-product made in photosynthesis, needed by animals?
Organic molecules (carbohydrates and proteins)
5 of 10
Explain why most living things rely on plants for energy.
Because they capture and store the sun’s energy
6 of 10
What else do living things rely on plants for?
Plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen- so they can respire
7 of 10
What do many plants rely on insects for? How does this affect humans?
Plants, particularly crops, are pollinated by insects- helping produce food that we eat
8 of 10
What is a food chain? And a food web?
Food chains show ‘what is eaten by what’ and the direction of energy flow. Food webs contain many interlinked food chains.
9 of 10
What happens to poisons after they are passed along the food chain?
Organisms higher up the food chain (usually top carnivores) are likely to be the worst affected as the toxins build up as they are passed along
