Question

drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. identify the type of chemical reaction involved in each action. combustion reaction photosynthesis respiration michael uses a car that burns fossil fuels. alan grows tomatoes on his farm. lisa eats eggs for breakfast.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze Michael's action

Michael uses a car that burns fossil fuels. Burning fossil fuels is a combustion reaction (reaction with oxygen to release energy, producing \(CO_2\), \(H_2O\) etc.). So pair "Michael uses a car that burns fossil fuels" with "combustion reaction".

Step2: Analyze Alan's action

Alan grows tomatoes. Tomatoes are plants, and plants perform photosynthesis (convert \(CO_2\) and \(H_2O\) into glucose and \(O_2\) using sunlight). So pair "Alan grows tomatoes on his farm" with "photosynthesis".

Step3: Analyze Lisa's action

Lisa eats eggs. After eating, the body performs respiration (break down glucose to release energy, using \(O_2\) and producing \(CO_2\), \(H_2O\) and ATP). So pair "Lisa eats eggs for breakfast" with "respiration".

Answer:

• Michael uses a car that burns fossil fuels: combustion reaction
• Alan grows tomatoes on his farm: photosynthesis
• Lisa eats eggs for breakfast: respiration
