Photosynthesis and respiration test

Front

What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

Back

Water and carbon dioxide.

Front

What is the product of the light-dependent reaction in photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen.

Front

What is the product of the light-independent reaction (Calvin cycle) in photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose.

Front

What is the usable form of energy in cells?

Back

ATP.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun.

Front

What is the overall equation for photosynthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What are the two main types of respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration.

Front

What is the main product of aerobic respiration?

Back

ATP (energy), carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is the main product of anaerobic respiration?

Back

Lactic acid or ethanol, and ATP.
