Biology Unit 3: Cell Energy

Front

What are the three key ingredients needed for photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.

Front

What is the primary source of energy for photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight.

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose (sugar) and oxygen.

Front

What is the process by which cells convert glucose into ATP?

Back

Cellular respiration.

Front

What are the two types of cellular respiration?

Back

Aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Front

What is aerobic respiration?

Back

A type of respiration that requires oxygen.

Front

What is anaerobic respiration?

Back

A type of respiration that occurs without oxygen.

Front

What is ATP and why is it important?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, used to power various cellular processes.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.

Front

How does oxygen affect ATP production?

Back

Oxygen is essential for aerobic respiration, which produces ATP more efficiently than anaerobic processes.
