Front

What does the equation C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6H2O + 6CO2 + Energy (ATP) represent?

Back

Cellular Respiration.

Front

What is a population in biological terms?

Back

Organisms of the same species that can breed.

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?

Back

To convert biochemical energy from nutrients into ATP, and then release waste products.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and converts it into chemical energy.

Front

What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon Dioxide and Water.

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, while cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is ATP?

Back

Adenosine Triphosphate, the energy currency of the cell.
