Question

1. what two types of cells contain chloroplasts? 2. autotrophs make their own food using energy from _. 3. the food - making process is called _. 4. what are the raw materials for photosynthesis? 5. what simple sugar is produced? 6. what gas is used in the process? what gas is released? 7. where are most chloroplasts in plants found? 8. what compound can be made from glucose and serves as long - term energy storage? 9. compare the raw materials of photosynthesis to the products of respiration. 10. how are these two processes (photosynthesis and respiration) related? the structure of the chloroplast chloroplasts are double membrane organelles with a smooth outer membrane and an inner membrane that is folded into disc - shaped sacs called the thylakoid. color and label the outer membrane light green. color and label the inner membrane brown. thylakoids contain chlorophyll and other pigments (red, orange, yellow, brown) and are found in stacks called granum (grana, plural.). color and label the thylakoids dark green, then highlight the entire stack of granum with yellow. these stacks are connected to other stacks by channels called lamellae. color and label the lamella orange. grana are surrounded by a gel - like material called stroma. color and label the stroma blue. 11. how many membranes surround a chloroplast? 12. thylakoids form stacks called _. 13. stacks of granum are connected to each other by _.

Explanation:

1. Plant cells and some algae cells contain chloroplasts as they are involved in photosynthesis.
2. Autotrophs use solar energy to make their own food through photosynthesis.
3. Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophs produce food.
4. Carbon - dioxide ($CO_2$) and water ($H_2O$) are the raw materials for photosynthesis.
5. Glucose is the simple sugar produced in photosynthesis.
6. Carbon - dioxide is used and oxygen is released in photosynthesis.
7. Most chloroplasts in plants are found in leaves.
8. Starch can be made from glucose for long - term energy storage, not ATP (ATP is for short - term energy).
9. The raw materials of photosynthesis ($CO_2$ and $H_2O$) are the products of respiration, and vice - versa.
10. Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen which are used in respiration, and respiration produces $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ which are used in photosynthesis.
11. Chloroplasts have two membranes (outer and inner).
12. Thylakoids form stacks called grana.
13. Stacks of grana are connected by lamellae.
