Energy Moves through Organisms

To produce glucose from sunlight

To release stored energy for cellular activities

To break down food into smaller molecules

To convert carbon dioxide into oxygen

Matter is created during chemical reactions

Atoms are rearranged but not created or destroyed

Energy is lost during chemical reactions

Chemical reactions only occur in plants

By consuming herbivores

By converting sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis

By breaking down glucose into carbon dioxide

By releasing oxygen for cellular respiration

They are converted into glucose

They react with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and release energy

They are destroyed during the process

They are stored for future use

It converts oxygen into energy

It breaks down food into smaller molecules for energy production

It produces carbon dioxide for cellular respiration

It rearranges atoms to create new molecules
