cellular energy

Front

What is ATP and its role in cellular energy?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the primary energy carrier in cells, providing energy for various cellular processes by releasing a phosphate group.

Front

What happens to ATP when a phosphate group is removed?

Back

Energy is released, which can be used for cellular work.

Front

What gas do plants release during photosynthesis that animals need?

Back

Oxygen.

Front

What gas do animals release that plants need for photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide.

Front

Why is chlorophyll green?

Back

Chlorophyll reflects green wavelengths of light and absorbs blue and red wavelengths.

Front

What is the correct equation for photosynthesis?

Back

CO2 + light + H2O -> O2 + Sugar.

Front

What type of cellular respiration does not require oxygen?

Back

Anaerobic respiration.

Front

What is the process of photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

Light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle).

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.
