Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight, which is essential for photosynthesis.

Front

What is the main purpose of photosynthesis?

Back

To convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back
