Photosynthesis and Cell Respiration

Front

What is the main goal of Cellular Respiration?

Back

The main goal of Cellular Respiration is to make ATP.

Front

How does most of the water needed by the plant get into its leaves?

Back

Most of the water needed by the plant enters through the roots, which absorb it and then it travels up the xylem.

Front

Which organelle is responsible for cellular respiration?

Back

The mitochondria are responsible for cellular respiration.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

The products of cellular respiration are water and carbon dioxide.

Front

What is the correct equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?

Back

The correct equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS is CO2 + light + H2O --> O2 + Sugar.

Front

Define Photosynthesis.

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll, converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is ATP and why is it important?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, providing energy for various cellular processes.

Front

What role do chloroplasts play in photosynthesis?

Back

Chloroplasts are the organelles in plant cells where photosynthesis occurs, containing chlorophyll that captures light energy.

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of stomata in plants?

Back

Stomata are small openings on the surface of leaves that allow for gas exchange, enabling the intake of carbon dioxide and the release of oxygen.
