Weekly blog 10/9/16



Summary: This week we learned about photosynthesis and respiration. The reactants of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water. Then the Products of Photosynthesis are glucose/sugar and oxygen (This takes place in the chloroplast). Reactants are the ingredients of the process and the products is what was created from the reactants. Then for respiration the reactants are oxygen and glucose/sugar. The products of respiration are carbon dioxide, water and also a large amount of energy (This takes place in the mitochondria).

SP3: Planning and carrying out investigations
A major practice of scientists is planning and carrying out systematic investigations that require clarifying what counts as data and in experiments identifying variables.

Did you plan and carry out an investigation?
(Mostly when we do a investigation, lab, or experiment)

In class we used a website called gizmo and used simulations kind of like an experiment for photosynthesis and respiration.
