Front

What is the primary function of chloroplasts in plant cells?

Back

Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy.

Front

What gas do plants take from the atmosphere during photosynthesis?

Back

Plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.

Front

What is the reactant used in cellular respiration?

Back

Oxygen (O2) is a reactant used in cellular respiration.

Front

What is the correct equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → 6O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆

Front

What process returns oxygen to the atmosphere?

Back

Photosynthesis returns oxygen to the atmosphere as a byproduct.

Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, using carbon dioxide and water.

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.

Front

What are the main products of photosynthesis?

Back

The main products of photosynthesis are glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and oxygen (O₂).

Front

What is the role of sunlight in photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight provides the energy needed for the photosynthesis process to occur.

Front

How do plants obtain water for photosynthesis?

Back

Plants absorb water (H₂O) from the soil through their roots.
