Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration Review

Front

What process describes how plants use air, water, and energy from the Sun to make their own food?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy, usually from the sun, into chemical energy in the form of glucose, using carbon dioxide and water.

Front

True or False: Cellular Respiration is a chemical reaction.

Back

True. Cellular respiration is a series of metabolic processes that convert glucose into usable energy (ATP) in cells.

Front

How does water travel from the roots to the plant leaf? Name the structure that carries water.

Back

Water travels from the roots to the leaves through the xylem, which are specialized vessels in plants.

Front

The process in which a cell harvests energy from glucose and makes it into usable energy for the body is called-----

Back

Cellular respiration is the process that converts glucose into ATP, the energy currency of the cell.

Front

Which number represents the stoma?

Back

The stoma is represented by number 7, which are small openings on the leaf surface that allow gas exchange.

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

The main product of photosynthesis is glucose, which serves as food for the plant.

Front

What gas do plants take in during photosynthesis?

Back

Plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll is the green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, to facilitate photosynthesis.

Front

What is the byproduct of photosynthesis?

Back

The byproduct of photosynthesis is oxygen (O2), which is released into the atmosphere.

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, while cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water.
