Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Front

What is the chemical formula for photosynthesis?

Back

CO2 + H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + O2

Front

What cycle are photosynthesis and cellular respiration part of?

Back

Carbon cycle

Front

In which organelle does photosynthesis occur in eukaryotes?

Back

Chloroplast

Front

What is the primary product of cellular respiration that cells can use for energy?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)

Front

Can plants undergo both photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

True

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, to drive the photosynthesis process.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions).

Front

What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?

Back

To convert biochemical energy from nutrients into ATP, and release waste products.

Front

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2).

Front

What are the products of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2).
