Front

What gas is produced by plants during photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen

Front

Where does transcription occur in eukaryotic cells?

Back

Nucleus

Front

What type of organisms perform photosynthesis?

Back

Only Autotrophs (ex: plants)

Front

What can occur if a cell constantly goes through the cell cycle?

Back

Cancer (tumor)

Front

What is the primary function of chlorophyll in plants?

Back

To absorb light energy for photosynthesis.

Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

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

Front

What is the role of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis?

Back

It is a reactant that plants use to produce glucose and oxygen.

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

Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in cellular respiration to produce energy.

Front

What are autotrophs?

Back

Organisms that produce their own food, typically through photosynthesis.
