What is the process of photosynthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

The main product of photosynthesis is glucose, which serves as an energy source for plants.

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 is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces more energy (ATP) compared to anaerobic respiration, which occurs without oxygen and produces less energy.

Front

What is the word equation for aerobic respiration?

Back

glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy (ATP)

Front

What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in yeast?

Back

glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide + energy (ATP)
