Test: Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Front

What is the formula for cellular respiration?

Back

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

Front

What is the overall purpose of photosynthesis?

Back

To convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into glucose (food for plant) and oxygen.

Front

Front

What is the role of sunlight in photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight provides the energy needed to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose.

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose (C6H12O6)

Front

What is the byproduct of photosynthesis?
