Photosynthesis, Cellular Respiration and Cell Transport

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, using carbon dioxide and water.

Front

What are the main reactants needed for photosynthesis?

Back

The main reactants for photosynthesis are light, water, and carbon dioxide.

Front

What is the primary product of photosynthesis?

Back

The primary products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What gas do plants release during photosynthesis?

Back

Plants release oxygen during photosynthesis.

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

The equation for photosynthesis is 6CO₂ + light + 6H₂O → 6O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

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

Front

What are the main reactants for cellular respiration?

Back

The main reactants for cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

The products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (energy).

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in cellular respiration to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water. They are interconnected processes.

Front

What is osmosis?

Back

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
