How Does a Plant Make It’s Own How Does a Plant Make It’s Own Food?Food?
Plants use carbon dioxide (Plants use carbon dioxide (COCO22), water (), water (HH22OO), and ), and
sun’s energysun’s energy to make food. to make food. This is called “This is called “photosynthesisphotosynthesis” ” The food gives plants The food gives plants energyenergy Animals get the Animals get the
energy stored in energy stored in plantsplants when they when they eat them. eat them.
How Do Plants Get Energy From Sun? How Do Plants Get Energy From Sun? Plants have Plants have pigmentspigments that that
absorb energy from lightabsorb energy from light ChlorophyllChlorophyll (found in (found in
chloroplasts) is the pigment chloroplasts) is the pigment used in photosynthesisused in photosynthesis
What “Food” do Plants Make?What “Food” do Plants Make?
The “food” plants The “food” plants make is a make is a sugarsugar called glucose called glucose (C(C66HH1212OO66).).
Glucose and Glucose and oxygen oxygen (O(O22) are made during ) are made during
photosynthesis.photosynthesis.
How Do Organisms Get Energy How Do Organisms Get Energy From Food?From Food?
Animals cannot make their Animals cannot make their own foodown food like plants can. like plants can. But, BOTH plants and animals must But, BOTH plants and animals must break downbreak down (digest) (digest)
food in order to get food in order to get energyenergy from it (so they can live, grow, from it (so they can live, grow, & develop)& develop)
Cells do this Cells do this 22 ways: cellular respiration and fermentation ways: cellular respiration and fermentation
Cellular Respiration & FermentationCellular Respiration & Fermentation
Cellular Respiration uses Cellular Respiration uses oxygenoxygen (O (O22) to break down food) to break down food Fermentation does Fermentation does not not use use oxygenoxygen Cellular respiration releases Cellular respiration releases more energymore energy from food than from food than
Fermentation.Fermentation. So most So most eukaryoteseukaryotes
(ex: plants & animals) (ex: plants & animals) get their energy through get their energy through cellular respiration cellular respiration
Cellular RespirationCellular Respiration
Cellular Respiration = Cellular Respiration = chemical process that chemical process that happens in happens in cellscells
In prokaryotes, it In prokaryotes, it happens in the happens in the cell cell membranesmembranes
In eukaryotes, it In eukaryotes, it happens mostly in the happens mostly in the mitochondriamitochondria
Process of Cellular RespirationProcess of Cellular Respiration Food (glucose) is broken down into COFood (glucose) is broken down into CO22 and H and H22O and O and
energy is energy is releasedreleased CC66HH1212OO66 + 6 + 6 OO22 6 6 COCO22 + 6 + 6 HH22OO + + energyenergy (ATP) (ATP)
This energy can be used for:This energy can be used for: Keeping a constant Keeping a constant body temperaturebody temperature StorageStorage (ATP) - to be used later for things like growth (ATP) - to be used later for things like growth

that cellular that cellular respiration is just respiration is just the the oppositeopposite of of photosynthesis?photosynthesis?
