What is the function of chloroplasts in plant cells?

Back

Chloroplasts are organelles that conduct photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.

Front

What is the main source of oxygen in an ecosystem?

Back

Photosynthesis by plants.

Front

What is the structure of the cell membrane?

Back

The cell membrane is composed of a double layer of lipids, known as the phospholipid bilayer.

Front

How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?

Back

The products of photosynthesis (glucose and oxygen) are the reactants needed for cellular respiration, and vice versa.

Front

What is aerobic respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration is a process that requires oxygen to produce energy from glucose.

Front

What are the main products of photosynthesis?

Back

The main products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is the role of mitochondria in cells?

Back

Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell, where cellular respiration occurs to produce ATP (energy).

Front

What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, while anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen.

Front

What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Front

What is the role of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide is one of the reactants used by plants to produce glucose during photosynthesis.
