Study Notes
Plant Importance
- Plants provide most of the calories and protein for the human diet.
Photosynthesis
- Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy and carbon dioxide into sugars.
Food Chain
- Plants serve as producers in the food chain by producing sugars through photosynthesis.
- Plants are not a human necessity mentioned in the text (False, plants are a human necessity).
Angiosperms
- Angiosperms supply seeds, fruits, and flowers.
- Angiosperms do not supply amino acids.
Angiosperm Structure
- Stamens and carpels are the reproductive structures of angiosperms.
Photosynthesis By-Products
- Oxygen is a by-product of photosynthesis.
Carbohydrates
- Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
- The main function of carbohydrates in cells is to provide energy.
Proteins
- Proteins are composed of 20 different amino acids.
- The main role of proteins in the human diet is to build and repair tissues.
Lipids
- Fats are a type of lipid that is largely composed of carbon and hydrogen.
Macromolecules

Species Classification
- A species is named using the binomial nomenclature system.
- A species is named using the genus and species name (e.g., Homo sapiens).
Linnaeus's Contributions
- Linnaeus's sexual system was a classification system based on the number of stamens and pistils in a flower.
- Linnaeus's system worked by grouping plants based on their reproductive structures.
