Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Front

What is the main product of Photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose (C6H12O6) + Oxygen (O2)

Front

Where does glycolysis occur in the cell?

Back

In the cytoplasm.

Front

What does anaerobic mean?

Back

It does not require oxygen.

Front

In which organelle does Photosynthesis take place?

Back

The chloroplast.

Front

Where do the light-dependent reactions of Photosynthesis occur?

Back

The thylakoids; part of the chloroplast.

Front

What is the overall equation for Photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in Photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun.

Front

What are the two main stages of Photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle (light-independent reactions).

Front

What is produced during the Krebs cycle?

Back

ATP, NADH, FADH2, and CO2.

Front

What is the main purpose of Cellular Respiration?

Back

To convert glucose into ATP energy.
