Read section 17-1, 17-2 and do the laboratory
“The Importance of Light & Chlorophyll
for Photosynthesis” (lab. supplement to your
book) and do answer the following questions
as a means of understanding this objective:
1. Define photosynthesis.(17-1)
2. State the general word equation for photosynthesis.(17-1)
3. Explain the importance of chlorophyll a to
the photosynthetic process.(17-1)
4. Explain the contributions made
by chlorophyll b, carotenes, and xanthophylls to the
photosynthetic process.(17-1)
5 Describe the structure and summarize the function
of a chloroplast.(17-1)
6. List the light reactions and the
dark reactions as the two types of chemical reactions
associated with photosynthesis,
noting in general terms how the two types work together
to produce glucose.(17-2)
7. List the environmental conditions that affect
the rate of photosynthesis.(17-2)
1. Define metabolism. (p.8)
2. Define cellular respiration and
write a chemical equation to show its action. (p.86, 6-1, 6-
3)
3 Explain why the chemical
energy found in glucose needs to be converted into ATP for
use by cells.(6-1)
4 Describe the role played by ATP in cells.(6-1)
5. Describe the role played by the mitochondrion
in cellular respiration.(pp. 86-87)
6. State the sources of the glucose and oxygen
needed for cellular respiration.(6-1, 6-2)
7. Define aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration.(6-2)
8. Distinguish between aerobic and anaerobic
respiration by noting differences in:
i) the end products created,
ii) the relative amounts of ATP produced,
and,
iii) the locations in the cell where each
series of reactions occurs.(6-3)
9. Explain why both aerobic
and anaerobic respiration are accompanied by a loss of energy
as heat.(6-1, 6-3)
10. Relate how both aerobic and anaerobic
respiration have roles to play in the functioning
of muscle cells in humans.(6-3)
11. Explain how cellular respiration is
related to the process of photosynthesis in the flow of
energy and the cycling
of matter.(p.347)
1. Describe
the organization and function of all structures in the human respiratory
system.
(11-2)
2. Explain
how the design of the human respiratory system is adapted to allow for
efficient
gas exchange by noting the functions of the following structures in human
respiration:
i) the cilia,
ii) the mucus membranes,
iii) the diaphragm and rib muscles,
iv) the large surface area of the alveoli,
v) the rings of cartilage in the trachea
and bronchi,
vi) the epiglottis.(p. 162, 11-2)
3. Describe the mechanics of ventilation.(11-2)
4. Explain how differences in air pressure cause
the lungs to inflate and deflate.(11-2)
5. Explain how body can obtain oxygen and get
rid of carbon dioxide.(11-2)
6. Explain how carbon monoxide poisoning occurs.(11-2)
7.Analyse the effects of smoking on the respiratory
system by noting common disorders of
the system (e.g. bronchitis, emphysema,
lung cancer) that are caused or compounded by
smoking.(11-2)
8. Evaluate the trend to make certain public
buildings smoke free.(11-2)
