Across
  1. 2. an organism that eats other organisms or organic matter
  2. 4. provide the location for the transfer of molecules and energy into glucose and oxygen (photosynthesis)
  3. 5. Glucose + oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy
  4. 8. The data or result of the change / independent variable
  5. 11. when a scientist conducts multiple trials of his/her own experiment
  6. 12. the capacity to do work
  7. 14. the movement of carbon from the nonliving environment into living things and back
  8. 15. provides hydrogen and extra oxygen molecules necessary for chemical transformation into glucose molecules
  9. 16. when a different scientist conducts the experiment of another scientist
  10. 17. provides energy for photosynthesis
  11. 18. absorbs the solar (light) energy for photosynthesis
Down
  1. 1. provides carbon from the atmosphere for conversion into food in the form of glucose (sugar)
  2. 2. Everything in the experiment that is consistent (the same) throughout each trial/sample of the experiment
  3. 3. a green pigment that captures light energy for photosynthesis
  4. 6. The part of the experiment that is changed by the scientist
  5. 7. anything that has mass and takes up space
  6. 9. an organism that can make its own food by using energy from its surroundings
  7. 10. Carbon dioxide + Water → glucose + oxygen
  8. 13. an organism that gets energy by breaking down the remains of dead organisms or animal wastes and consuming or absorbing the nutrients
