We Need Plants, & Plants Need Us!

We have been talking about the incredible balance that exists between plants and animals. We breathe out CO2, and plants 'breathe' CO2 in! It's lucky for us that oxygen is an output from plants, because we need it to survive! Your goal today is to begin the Unit 6 Plant Project, to show how photosynthesis and cellular respiration exist in a balance.

ASSIGNMENT DUE 5/10:

- Poster showing a plant and animal (photosynthesis + cellular respiration)

- Paragraph explanation

The learning stations will help you prepare for this project. Stations include:

• Flower dissection
• Plant cells / pollinator microscope slides
• Reading on Pollinators
• Online Resources (see below!!)
