Where do humans/animals and plants obtain energy from? 8) What are autotrophs/heterotrophs? Are humans autotroph or heterotroph? How about plants? 9) Plants can produce their own food. They can produce sugars which can be used as building blocks to synthesize (manufacture) more complex molecules or cell structures. True or False?

Answer questions 7 through 18. 

7) Where do humans/animals and plants obtain energy from?
8) What are autotrophs/heterotrophs? Are humans autotroph or heterotroph? How about plants?
9) Plants can produce their own food. They can produce sugars which can be used as building
blocks to synthesize (manufacture) more complex molecules or cell structures. True or False?
10) Name examples of photosynthetic organisms.
11) Where does photosynthesis happen (which organelles)?
12) Which molecule is implicated in photosynthesis and where is it located? Which of the following
wavelengths can this molecule absorb? blue, red, green.
13) Why do we perceive the leaves of a plant as green?
14) Photosynthesis has two parts. Name the events that happen in each of them.
15) Plants release oxygen. Does this happen in the “photo" or "synthesis" part of photosynthesis?
16) How are the “photo" and "synthesis" part of photosynthesis linked? (hint: which energy rich
molecules are implicated in linking the two parts of photosynthesis?)
17) Can a plant produce its own food when it is placed in the dark? Explain.
18) Define carbon fixation and explain where in happens (in which step of the photosynthetic
process?)
