1. Warm-Up: Copy and Answer in your notebook
How would you define/explain the concept of energy?
Where do we get energy?

2. Energy from Food Vocabulary
8th Grade Science 2014

3. Setting Up Your Paper, Continued…
Orient the paper so the binder hole punches are at the top
Fold the left and right sides of the paper in to meet the middle
Your paper should look like this:

ATP

6. Cells
Basic unit of life; smallest structure of an organism that is capable of functioning independently

7. Eukaryotic Cells
Cells that have a distinct, membrane-bound nucleus

8. Fuel
Something that gives nourishment; food

9. Molecule
The smallest physical unit of an element or compound, consisting of one or more like atoms in an element and two or more different atoms in a compound.

10. Organelle
A specialized subunit (cell organ) within a cell that has a specific function and is usually separately enclosed with its own lipid layer

11. Prokaryotic Cells
Cells without a nucleus

12. Cellular Respiration
The process in which nutrients are converted into useful energy in a cell; the metabolic processes whereby certain organisms obtain energy from organic molecules; processes that take place in the cells and tissues during which energy is released and carbon dioxide is produced and absorbed by the blood to be transported to the lungs

13. Cellular Respiration Chemical Equation
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy (as ATP)
Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy (as ATP)

14. Thermal Energy
The movement of atoms and molecules; portion of energy that is responsible for a system's temperature

15. Photosynthesis
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.

16. Photosynthesis Chemical Equation
6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy  C6H12O6 + 6O2
Carbon dioxide + Water + Light Energy  Glucose + Oxygen

17. A substance present in all living cells that provides energy for many metabolic processes and is involved in making RNA.
