9C - Plants and Photosynthesis


plant

Use the table below to help you study this unit.

 

Level 3

I know what green plants need and can explain what happens to the plant without them.

I can name and label the parts of a plant on diagrams and live plants.

Level 4

I know what green plants need sunlight for.

I know what the green parts of a plant are responsible for.

I know how air goes in and out of plants and how water goes in.

Level 5

I can identify the raw materials for photosynthesis and where they come from.

I can explain how and where photosynthesis takes place.

I can describe how leaf and root cells are adapted for their functions.

I can describe the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration in plants.

I can explain how the leaf is involved in gaseous exchange.

I realise when respiration and photosynthesis occurs in plants .

I know what plants need for photosynthesis and why this process occurs.

I can relate the parts of plant to functions.

Level 6

I can identify the raw materials and explain the energy source for photosynthesis.

I can describe the source of biomass.

I can describe how leaves are adapted for photosynthesis and how roots are adapted to take in water.

I can represent photosynthesis as a word equation.

I can distinguish between photosynthesis and respiration in plants and can explain them. 

I know that human and green plant respiration is aerobic.

I can describe the function of chloroplasts/ vacuole/cell wall. 

I can explain why plants have transport vessels and describe why  materials are constantly moving inside these vessels.

I know what the products of photosynthesis are used for by the plant.

Level 7

I know the plant cell structure and structure of leaf, including stomata and can label them on diagrams.

I can represent photosynthesis as a symbol equation.

I can explain the function of palisade, mesophyll and guard cells.

I can explain the chemical changes involved in respiration and photosynthesis.
