Front

What gas is released by plants during photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen is released by plants during photosynthesis.

Front

What are the products of photosynthesis?

Back

The products of photosynthesis are sugar and oxygen.

Front

In which eukaryotic organelles does photosynthesis occur?

Back

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts.

Front

What is fermentation in relation to cellular respiration?

Back

Fermentation is cellular respiration without oxygen (O2).

Front

What energy molecule is created by the mitochondria?

Back

The energy molecule created by the mitochondria is ATP.

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll is the pigment that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis.

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

The equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What are the two main types of cellular respiration?

Back

The two main types of cellular respiration are aerobic (with oxygen) and anaerobic (without oxygen).
