Carbon dioxide and water.

Front

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose and oxygen.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

Carbon dioxide, water, and energy (ATP).

Front

Where does photosynthesis occur in plants?

Back

Chloroplasts.

Front

What is the overall equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Front

What is the overall equation for cellular respiration?

Back

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (ATP).

Front

What role do chlorophyll play in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun.

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.

Front

How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration relate to each other?

Back

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