Overview
In module 3, you have learned how changes in
the environment may affect species
extinction. It helps you understand how to
prevent extinction of organisms in an
ecosystem.
In this module, you will learn that all
organisms need energy to sustain life. Your
study will focus on how organisms obtain
energy from food and how organisms produce
energy.
Now you have to read and answer the questions that follow in the best way
you can. Your answers will give the teacher the necessary information on
what you already know and those topics that need to be given more
emphasis.
Pre Assessment:
1. Plants make food by absorbing water and carbon dioxide. Which of the
following substances is the origin of oxygen released as gas by green plants
during photosynthesis?
a. water c. carbon dioxide
b. sugar d. ribulose-1,5-biphosphate
2. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are gases that cycle out in the ecosystem.
Which of the following gases is important to photosynthesis?
a. ozone gas b. water vapor c. oxygen d. carbon dioxide
3. Plants are considered as food makers. In which of the following cell
organelles does photosynthesis occur?
a. ribosome b. chlorophyll c. chloroplast d. mitochondrion
4. The light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis must come first before the
light independent reaction because its products are important to the fixation
of carbon dioxide. Which of the following is/are the product/s of the light
dependent reaction?
a. ADP only b. NADPH only c. ATP only d. NADPH and ATP
5. Plants are very unique among other organisms due to their capability to
trap sunlight and make their own food. Which of the following enables
plants to trap energy from the sun?
a. epidermis b. chloroplast c. cuticle d. chlorophyll
6. All organisms get energy from food to perform different life processes.
This is done in the cells by breaking down sugar molecules into chemical
energy. Which of the following cell organelles is associated with the
production of chemical energy?
a. chloroplast b. mitochondrion c. endoplasmic reticulum d. nucleus
7. Pyruvate is the product of glycolysis. If there is no oxygen available to
cells of the human body, what becomes of pyruvate?
a. alcohol b. lactic acid c. CO2 d. a and c
8. If you did not eat for three days, where did your cell get the glucose for
ATP production?
a. blood sugar c. glycogen present in the muscle
b. glycogen in the liver
d. protein in the blood
9. How many molecule/s of carbon dioxide is/are released from one pyruvic
acid molecule being oxidized?
a. 1 b. 3 c. 2 d. 4
