2. The carbon atoms in the cellulose of a wood log originally came from _____ absorbed by the plant.
Carbon Dioxide
3. Organisms that make their own organic compounds from inorganic substances are called – autotrophs

18.The energy source for photosynthesis is
glucose.
oxygen.
carbon dioxide.
sunlight.
chlorophyll.
19. How would Earth be different without photosynthesis?
All answers are correct.
Autotrophs would rely on other chemical mechanisms to make carbohydrates.
The amount of oxygen in the atmosphere would be lower.
More sunlight would be absorbed and converted to environmental heat.
Heterotrophs would have few food sources.
Without photosynthesis, many of the non-living parts of Earth would change, and most living things would not exist for lack of
oxygen. Please see section 5.1 for more information.
20. The primary pigment molecule needed for photosynthesis is
oxygen.
glucose.
sunlight.
chlorophyll a.
carbon dioxide.

Cells chapter 3
1.
Click on the structures that all cells have. (Select all that apply.)
2.Ribosomes use proteins to produce DNA.
True
False
Ribosomes use the information encoded in the genetic material to produce proteins.
3.All organisms are made of one or more cells, which are the fundamental units of life.
True
False
The cell theory states that the cell is the fundamental unit of all life; all organisms are made of one or more cells.
4.
Many features of eukaryotes and prokaryotes differ. Drag and drop each phrase onto the image of the appropriate cell type. If a
phrase applies to both cell types, drop it in the box that says “Applies to both”.

7. Consider your knowledge about the cell membrane and check all of the true statements below.
Cell membranes are present in only two of the three domains of life.
Phospholipids can self-assemble into a sphere without the help of proteins.
If the fatty acid tails of phospholipids were hydrophilic, and the phosphate heads were hydrophobic,
you’d expect the bilayer to look like this: [Show Less]
