Document Summary

Producers and consumers: plants and other autotrophs (self-feeders): Make their own organic matter from inorganic nutrients. Autotrophs are producers because ecosystems depends upon them for food: heterotrophs (other feeders): Include humans and other animals that cannot make organic molecules from inorganic ones. Heterotrophs are consumers because they eat plants or other animals. The metabolic pathway for cellular respiration: glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide + water + energy, c6h1206 + 6o2 6co2 + 6h20 + atp, a common fuel molecule for cellular respiration is glucose. Chemical cycling between photosynthesis and cellular respiration: the ingredients for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water. Co2 is obtained from the air by a plant"s leaves. H20 is obtained from the damp soil by a plant"s roots: chloroplasts in the cells of leaves: Use light energy to rearrange the atoms of co2 and h20 which produces: sugars (such as glucose, other organic molecules, oxygen, plant and animal cells perform cellular respiration, a chemical process that:
