● I can describe the process of cellular

● Cellular Respiration Equation Game

provides for both needs. During cellular respiration food is changed through chemical reactions to form new molecules that support growth and/or release energy as matter cycles through the organism.

respiration as stored energy is released and matter is rearranged to maintain life. ● I can write and describe the chemical equation for respiration. ● I can describe the outcomes of respiration including that our bodies release the energy in the food we eat and rearrange matter into new molecules. respiration as stored energy is released and matter is rearranged to maintain life. ● I can write and describe the chemical equation for respiration. ● I can describe the outcomes of respiration including that our bodies release the energy in the food we eat and rearrange matter into new molecules. photosynthesis and respiration to trace the fow of matter and energy through organisms. ● I can relate ● I can describe the process of cellular
