Front

What are the products in the cellular respiration equation?

Back

Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP

Front

What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight + CO2 + H2O -> C6H12O6 + O2

Front

What is the process of photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight converts water and carbon dioxide into glucose (energy) and oxygen.

Front

Where does cellular respiration occur in cells?

Back

Mitochondria

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What role does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight, which is essential for converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose.

Front

What is the main purpose of photosynthesis?

Back

To convert solar energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.

Front

What is ATP and its role in cellular respiration?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, produced during cellular respiration.
