Across
- 3. the process of exchanging gases. Animals inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide as a waste; plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen as a waste.
- 7. the process by which carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight are converted into glucose by green plants
- 10. absorbed through the root and a necessary ingredient of photosynthesis
Down
- 1. solar energy absorbed by chlorophyll that is necessary for photosynthesis
- 2. the organelle in a plant cell where photosynthesis happens
- 3. a green pigment in all plants responsible for the absorption of sunlight
- 4. the result of carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight in photosynthesis: the energy for the plant
- 5. a colorless, odorless gas released during photosynthesis
- 6. a colorless, odorless gas absorbed by plants during photosynthesis
- 7. tubes throughout the plant used to transport glucose to all parts of the plant
- 8. tiny openings in the plant used for the exchange of gases and the release of excess water
- 9. tubes in the stem of plants used to transport water throughout the plant
