Front

What is the source of energy for photosynthesis?

Back

Light (radiant energy)

Front

What is the overall chemical reaction for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Front

In what cell organelle does Cellular Respiration take place?

Back

Cytoplasm and mitochondria

Front

What is the correct chemical equation for Cellular Respiration?

Back

C6H12O6 (Glucose) + O2 (Oxygen) → CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) + H2O (Water) + ATP

Front

What is the correct equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?

Back

CO2 + light + H2O → O2 + Sugar

Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

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

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll is a pigment that absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, to convert it into chemical energy.

Front

What are the products of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose (sugar) and oxygen.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

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

Front

What are the main stages of cellular respiration?

Back

Glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and Electron Transport Chain.
