photosynthesis and respriration

Front

Which gas is removed from the atmosphere during photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.

Front

In what part of the cell does photosynthesis occur?

Back

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

Cellular respiration is the breakdown of glucose to release ATP.

Front

What gas is released by plants during photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen is released by plants during photosynthesis.

Front

What is the purpose of photosynthesis?

Back

The purpose of photosynthesis is to make glucose.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, which is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

The two main stages of photosynthesis are the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle).

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

The equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2.

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 to power cellular activities.

Front

What are the byproducts of cellular respiration?

Back

The byproducts of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide and water.
