Cellular Respiration and Photsynthesis

Front

What is the equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?

Back

CO₂ + light + H₂O → O₂ + Sugar

Front

What is the powerhouse of the cell?

Back

Mitochondria

Front

What are products in a chemical reaction?

Back

Substances present at the end of a chemical reaction.

Front

What is the equation for cellular respiration?

Back

6O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + Energy

Front

What is the goal of Cellular Respiration?

Back

To make ATP.

Front

What is the role of chloroplasts in photosynthesis?

Back

Chloroplasts capture light energy to convert CO₂ and H₂O into glucose.

Front

What is ATP?

Back

Adenosine triphosphate, the energy currency of the cell.

Front

What is the main difference between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis converts light energy into chemical energy, while cellular respiration converts chemical energy into usable energy (ATP).

Front

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

Back

Oxygen (O₂) and glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆).

Front

What is the byproduct of photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen (O₂).
