  1. 8. The release of energy from organic compounds (sugar/glucose) to produce ATP.
  2. 9. Molecules that contain carbon (for our purposes right now, that means sugar/glucose)
  3. 10. Plants use the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose and other sugars.
  4. 13. An educated guess
  5. 14. ______ variables: All those things that must be kept the same during the investigation to produce a valid, fair test.
  6. 16. Organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy; site of photosynthesis
  7. 17. In an experiment, the group that is not exposed to the treatment; contrasts with the experimental group and serves as a comparison for evaluating the effect of the treatment.
  8. 19. Information gathered by noticing facts and occurrences using your 5 senses.
  9. 20. The form of carbohydrate that supplies energy to the body (Also referred to as: glucose/organic molecule). Sugar is also produced in plants during photosynthesis.
  10. 21. ______ of cellular respiration: glucose and oxygen
Down
  1. 1. Step by step approach to identify an organism using a series of paired descriptions
  2. 2. ______ variable: The experimental factor that is manipulated (changed); the variable whose effect is being studied.
  3. 3. *Same as "controlled variables!"
  4. 4. _______ variable: The measurable effect, outcome, or response; the DATA!
  5. 5. ______ sample size: This will increase accuracy and validity of the data; this is why we find class averages & then compare class averages between the different class periods!
  6. 6. Drawing conclusions from evidence using your 5 senses and previous knowledge.
  7. 7. The form of sugar that circulates in the blood and provides the major source of energy (ATP) for body tissues. (Also referred to as: sugar/organic molecule); Also produced in plants through photosynthesis.
  8. 11. Organelle that is the site of ATP (energy) production. (It is NOT enough to say that it is the "powerhouse of the cell")
  9. 12. Relatively constant internal physical and chemical conditions that organisms maintain (balance/equilibrium)
  10. 15. Who uses cellular respiration?:ALL _____ organisms
  11. 18. ______ of cellular respiration: ATP, carbon dioxide, water
