Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis

Front

Which organelle is the primary site of photosynthesis?

Back

Chloroplast

Front

What is the chemical formula for glucose?

Back

C6H12O6

Front

How do autotrophs obtain their food?

Back

By doing photosynthesis.

Front

What is the process called where carbon dioxide and water are combined to create glucose and oxygen?

Back

Photosynthesis.

Front

What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?

Back

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight to help convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose.

Front

What is the difference between autotrophs and heterotrophs?

Back

Autotrophs produce their own food through photosynthesis, while heterotrophs consume other organisms for energy.

Front

What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?

Back

To convert glucose into usable energy (ATP) for the cell.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle.
