Final Study Guide Part 2: Photosynthesis/Cellular Resipiration

Front

What are the two products formed in photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen and glucose.

Front

What process do heterotrophs and autotrophs undergo to convert glucose into ATP?

Back

Cellular respiration.

Front

Where does the energy for plants to perform photosynthesis come from?

Back

Sunlight.

Front

What is one of the reactants (raw materials) going into cellular respiration?

Back

Sugar (Glucose).

Front

What is the primary form of energy in cells?

Back

ATP.

Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

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

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and converts it into chemical energy.

Front

What are the main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle.

Front

What is the 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.
