Front

What are reactants in a chemical reaction?

Back

Substances present at the beginning of a chemical reaction.

Front

What is ATP and its role in the cell?

Back

ATP is a form of energy the cell can use that is produced by cellular respiration.

Front

What is glucose in the context of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose is a product of photosynthesis and a reactant of cellular respiration.

Front

Why do we breathe in oxygen?

Back

We breathe in oxygen for cellular respiration.

Front

What do plants need from the air for photosynthesis?

Back

Plants need carbon dioxide from the air for photosynthesis.

Front

What is the process of photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What are the main products of photosynthesis?

Back

The main products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What are the main stages of cellular respiration?

Back

The main stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.

Front

How do plants obtain the carbon dioxide needed for photosynthesis?

Back

Plants obtain carbon dioxide from the air through small openings in their leaves called stomata.
