Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Review

Front

What is the main product of Glycolysis?

Back

Pyruvic acid is the main product of Glycolysis.

Front

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

Back

The reactants of cellular respiration are C6H12O6 (glucose) and O2 (oxygen).

Front

What type of organism must consume energy?

Back

Heterotrophs are organisms that must consume energy.

Front

What happens to ATP production if glucose levels increase in an animal cell?

Back

If glucose levels increase, the cell will produce more ATP.

Front

Which color of light is primarily absorbed by plants during photosynthesis?

Back

Plants primarily absorb red light.

Front

What is the role of ATP in cellular processes?

Back

ATP serves as the primary energy currency of the cell, providing energy for various biochemical reactions.

Front

What is 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.

Front

What is the Krebs Cycle?

Back

The Krebs Cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to generate energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA.

Front

What is the difference between autotrophs and heterotrophs?

Back

Autotrophs produce their own food (e.g., plants), while heterotrophs consume other organisms for energy.

Front

What is the significance of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide is a key reactant in photosynthesis, used by plants to produce glucose.
