Cellular Respiration/Photosynthesis/Symbiosis

Front

Pigment in green plants that captures the energy in sunlight is called __________.

Back

Chlorophyll is the pigment in green plants that captures sunlight energy for photosynthesis.

Front

What type of symbiotic relationship exists when both species benefit?

Back

Mutualism is a type of symbiotic relationship where both species benefit from the interaction.

Front

Front

What type of symbiotic relationship occurs when one organism captures, kills, and eats another?

Back

Predation is the type of symbiotic relationship where one organism (the predator) captures and eats another (the prey).

Front

What type of respiration requires oxygen?

Back

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen to produce energy.

Front

What is the process by which plants convert sunlight into chemical energy?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert sunlight into chemical energy.

Front

What is the role of stomata in plants?

Back

Stomata are small openings on the surfaces of leaves that allow for gas exchange, including the intake of carbon dioxide and the release of oxygen.

Front

What is anaerobic respiration?

Back

Anaerobic respiration is a type of respiration that occurs without oxygen, producing energy through fermentation.

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight, while cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is the significance of ATP in cellular processes?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, providing energy for various cellular processes.
