Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis

Front

Where does photosynthesis occur in plants?

Back

Chloroplasts are the organelles where photosynthesis takes place in plants.

Front

Where does cellular respiration occur in cells?

Back

Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of cells.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

The products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP energy.

Front

What is the primary pigment found in plants?

Back

Chlorophyll is the primary pigment in plants that captures light energy for photosynthesis.

Front

What are the inputs of cellular respiration?

Back

The inputs of cellular respiration are glucose (sugar) and oxygen.

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is ATP?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, used to power various cellular processes.

Front

What role does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, which is essential for the photosynthesis process.

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

The equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2.
