What is one of the reactants for photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide

Front

What processes do plants perform?

Back

Both photosynthesis and cellular respiration

Front

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

The breakdown of glucose to release ATP

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

The process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy (glucose) using carbon dioxide and water.

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose (sugar)

Front

What gas do plants release during photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, which is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose.

Front

What is ATP?

Back
