Front

What are the inputs (reactants) of cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose and oxygen are the inputs (reactants) of cellular respiration.

Front

Where does cellular respiration take place?

Back

Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria.

Front

What is the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

The products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide, water, and energy (ATP).

Front

What is the main function of mitochondria?

Back

The main function of mitochondria is to produce energy (ATP) through cellular respiration.

Front

What is diffusion?

Back

Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Front

What is osmosis?

Back

Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll is the pigment that absorbs sunlight, allowing plants to perform photosynthesis.

Front

What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, while anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen.

Front

What is the significance of cell division (mitosis)?

Back

Cell division (mitosis) is significant for growth, repair, and replacement of damaged cells.
