Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Review

Front

Why do most plants appear green?

Back

Because chlorophyll reflects green light.

Front

Where does the Calvin Cycle occur?

Back

In the Stroma of the chloroplast.

Front

What is the end product of cellular respiration?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate).

Front

What is the correct equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO₂ + 12H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.

Front

What is the final electron acceptor in cellular respiration?

Back

Oxygen, as it forms water.

Front

What is chlorophyll?

Back

A green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis.

Front

What is the role of ATP in cellular processes?

Back

ATP serves as the primary energy carrier in cells.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and the Calvin Cycle.

Front

What is the primary function of the thylakoid membranes?

Back

To capture light energy and convert it into chemical energy.

Front

What is the significance of the electron transport chain (ETC) in cellular respiration?

Back

It generates ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
