Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Front

What do plants need to perform photosynthesis?

Back

Plants need Water (H2O), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Sunlight Energy to perform photosynthesis.

Front

In what organelle does cellular respiration take place?

Back

Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria.

Front

Where do plants get the energy they need to perform photosynthesis?

Back

Plants get the energy they need to perform photosynthesis from the sun.

Front

What is not required for glycolysis to take place?

Back

Oxygen is not required for glycolysis to take place.

Front

Which organelle is responsible for photosynthesis?

Back

The chloroplast is responsible for photosynthesis.

Front

What is the overall equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy -> C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

The main product of photosynthesis is glucose (C6H12O6).

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight, which is essential for photosynthesis.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

The two main stages of photosynthesis are the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle.

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.
