Photosynthesis/ Cell Respiration (S22)

Front

What is the pigment in chloroplasts that performs photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll

Front

Where does the Krebs Cycle take place?

Back

Mitochondria

Front

What is the correct equation for cellular respiration?

Back

6O2 + C6H12O6 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy

Front

What is the overall goal of cellular respiration?

Back

To make ATP

Front

Which process produces the most ATP?

Back

Aerobic respiration (glycolysis and Krebs Cycle)

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

The process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle.

Front

What is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration?

Back

Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, allowing for the production of ATP.

Front

What is glycolysis?

Back

The process of breaking down glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP.

Front

What is the main product of the Krebs Cycle?

Back

NADH, FADH2, and ATP.
