Study Notes
Photosynthesis and Plant Processes
- Green plants make their own food through a process called photosynthesis, which involves the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
Transport in Plants
- Xylem is responsible for the transport of water and nutrients in plants.
Cellular Functions
- Mitochondria are the primary site of energy release in a cell, where they break down glucose to release energy.
- Mitochondria are also the primary function of releasing energy from glucose in a cell.
Photosynthesis
- Chloroplasts are the primary site of photosynthesis in a plant cell, where light energy is converted into chemical energy.
Cellular Respiration
- Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down glucose to release energy.
- Anaerobic respiration is the process by which cells release energy from glucose in the absence of oxygen.
Plant Uptake and Transport
- Osmosis is the process by which plant roots take up water and minerals for transport to the rest of the plant.
Cellular Waste Management
- Lysosomes are responsible for breaking down waste materials in a cell.
Excretion
- Excretion is the process by which waste products are removed from the body of an organism.
