GRADE -7
Unit -1 Lesson2-
SUBJECT -Science (PRACTICE WORKSHEET) Photosynthesis and cellular
respiration.

Unit-2 Lesson 3 -Energy and

matter flow.
Read each question .Follow the instructions to answer the
questions.

Question 1 –Which statement describes the flow of matter and

energy in decomposers?

A. A decomposer consumes dead or dying organisms to produce oxygen and sugar

molecules.
B. A decomposer digests living organism to produce energy, water and carbon dioxide.
C. A decomposer breaks down decaying matter to produce energy and release nutrients
back into the environment.

Question 2-During photosynthesis, energy from sunlight is stored as chemical energy. How will
the plant be able to release the energy in order to use it?

A. By breaking the bonds of water to form new molecules.

B. By breaking the bonds of sugar to form new molecules.
C. By breaking the bonds of oxygen to form new molecules.

Question 3 –Decomposers cycle matter and energy between which of these?

A. Producers and consumers

B. Dead organisms and scavengers
C. Living and non living parts of the environment.

Question 4-Photosynthesis is a complex process by which plants create their own food .Write
an X in the correct box to show whether each substance is an input or an output of
photosynthesis.
 Substance Input output

sugars x

oxygen x

sunlight x

Question 5-Two important processes that cells use are photosynthesis and cellular
respiration .Describe these two processes.

-------------plant cells use photosynthesis to use carbon, water, sunlight to release sugars and
oxygen. When it is released animals use the oxygen, and sugars to use cellular resperisation and
release water, carbon and energy for plants.---------------

energy is available in the herbivores in trophic level 2?
A.10 Kcal
B.1 Kcal
C.100 Kcal
D.1000 Kcal

Question 12-Which of the following is the correct equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?

A.6CO2 + 6H2O → 6O2 + C6H12O6
B.6CO2 + C6H12O6 + 6H2O → O2
C.6O2 +6H2O → 6CO2 +C6H12O6
D. C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6H2O + 6CO2

Question 13- In which way are photosynthesis and cellular respiration different?
A. Cellular respiration stores ATP, while photosynthesis releases ATP.
B. Cellular respiration produces oxygen, while photosynthesis uses oxygen.
C. Photosynthesis releases energy, while cellular respiration stores energy.
D. Photosynthesis used carbon dioxide, while cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide.

Question 14-If the amount carbon dioxide is increased what happens to the rate of
photosynthesis?

A. it increases
B. it decreases
C. it doesn't change
D. it is not affected
Question 15- C6H1206 +6O2--> 6H20 + 6CO2 + ATP –
The equation listed represents the overall reaction that takes place during which process?
A. Photosynthesis
B. Cellular Respiration
C. Human Respiration

Question 16-A student is collecting the gas given off from a plant in bright sunlight at a
temperature of 27 degrees Celsius. Which gas would the student is collecting?
A. Oxygen B. Carbon dioxide C. ATP D. Vaporized water

Question 17-. How many atoms of Hydrogen are in this compound……

A.1
B.2
C.3
D.4

Question 18-How many atoms are in the element Carbon in this compound?
H2C3O4N5

A.2
B.3
C.4
D.5

QUESTION 19- When humans burn fossil fuels, most of the carbon quickly enters the                    
as carbon dioxide.
A. Water
B. Atmosphere
C. Sun
D. Air

Question 20- Which one of these does not add CO2 to the atmosphere?
A. cooking with gas
B. planting trees
C. burning wood
D. riding in a bus

Question 21-A.Explain in your own words the carbon and nitrogen cycle.
----------carbon comes from humans to the to plants and then back to humans.

The hydrogen cycle consists of hydrogen exchanges between biotic (living) and

abiotic (non-living) sources and sinks of hydrogen-containing
compounds. Hydrogen (H) is the most abundant element in the universe.

------------

Question 22-Describe the role of producers, consumers and decomposers in the transfer of
energy through ecosystems.
-----------producers make the nutrients for the consumers to be able to transfer energy then
when consumers die, their bodies are decomposed by decomposers and turned back to the
producers.-----------

Question 23- Compare and contrast cellular respiration and fermentation.

-------------cellular resperisation requires oxygen but fermentation doesn’t.-------------
