Unit 4: Energy
Standards:
BIO 4.2.1 Analyze photosynthesis and cellular respiration in terms of how energy is stored, released, and transferred within and between these systems.
BIO 4.2.2 Explain ways that organisms use released energy for maintaining homeostasis (active transport).
Essential Questions:
- What is the source of energy for all of life? How/where is it manufactured?
- What is cellular energy and how is it produced?
- How is solar energy converted into sugar? How/where does this occur?
- What are the reactants and products of photosynthesis? What effects the rate of photosynthesis?
- How are sugars converted into cellular energy?
- Why do we use oxygen to break down sugars into cellular energy?
- What happens when cellular energy is needed, but no oxygen is available?
