Photosynthesis Flashcards

Front

Relationship between cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

Back

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are processes that cycle energy in cells, involving chloroplasts and mitochondria. The products of one reaction are the reactants of the other reaction. Photosynthesis uses the chloroplast to make the glucose that will be broken down in the mitochondria through cellular respiration into ATP.

Ionic bonds are examples of what type of reactions?

Back

Redox reactions (because they transfer electrons from one atom to another).

Photosynthesis process

Back

Plants use the energy of sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and high-energy carbohydrates (sugars and starches).
