Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 12IMT
For each statement, identify which major theme is evident (the relationship of structure to function, information flow, pathways that transform energy and matter, interactions within biological systems, or evolution) and explain how the statement relates to the theme. If necessary, review the theme descriptions (see Chapter 1) and review the examples highlighted in blue in this chapter.

7. Start with a photon of sunlight and a carbon atom in a molecule of carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere: model/diagram their pathway from that starting point to their final destination as a
molecule of glucose that is used for energy in the cells of the plant stem. Following your
diagram/model, provide a written explanation for what your diagram/model depicts. Make sure
both your model and explanation are clear, concise, and have the appropriate level of detail to
clearly demonstrate you understand photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and the movement of
mass and energy in plants.

Using good organization skills, check over your map of the steps in photosynthesis.
Your flowchart should include these concepts and details:
• location in the organelle the reactions occur,
• the type of biochemical reactions or cellular transport,
• the substrates and products for the overall process,
• vocabulary and terminology that allow you to demonstrate your understanding.
Ask yourself these big questions as a way to monitor and improve your work:
• Is the information I have presented a complete representation of my learning?
• Is the information I have presented correct?
• Have I fulfilled the requirements of the task?
• Are the steps I describe organized in the correct order?

Use the rubric below to assist you with your response. Criteria Scale Makes Claim about Photosynthesis and Supports Claim with Evidence 2 This response includes both a claim about photosynthesis and its importance, and supports the claim with one piece of factual evidence. 1 This response either lacks both a claim and a piece of evidence, or contains a faulty claim or irrelevant/faulty evidence. 0 This response lacks the required components for partial credit.arrow_forwardPhotosystems are essential for the photosynthetic reaction to be carried out.

- A botanist has been examining three plants, measuring the amount of acid in their cells, and examining sections of their leaves under the microscope. Numbers in the table are in relative units. Part A: Identify the kind of photosynthesis being done by each plant. Explain how enzymes contribute to this data. Part B: Decipher the origin of each plant if one is from the Mojave Desert, one is from a sand dune in Florida, and one is from Minnesota, and explain how you deciphered this.arrow_forwardControl variables, are those that the investigator does not want to vary systematically with the independent variable. The control variable should remain constant throughout the experiment. Let us examine an actual experiment to clarify the principles of the scientific investigation. Suppose a scientist is interested in studying the relationship between the color of light and photosynthesis in plants. From previous research, the experimenter knows that light is necessary for photosynthesis and that oxygen gas is produced as a by-product. The sunlight needed for photosynthesis, as well as the light from artificial sources such as light bulbs, is white light. White light is composed of all the different colors of the visible light spectrum. By using a prism, a solid triangular piece of glass, white light can be separated into its many wavelengths. The wavelengths become visible as different colors. Not all wavelengths are absorbed and used by green plants for photosynthesis. Some…arrow_forwardCells are open systems that exchange matter and energy with their surroundings. Which of the following best explains why plant cells require sunlight to make organic compounds, according to Gibbs’s theory of free energy? The photosynthetic reaction releases free energy to the surroundings. The photosynthetic reaction’s free energy is in equilibrium. The reactants of photosynthesis have less free energy than the products. The change in free energy (∆G) of the photosynthetic system is less than zero.arrow_forward
