POST P5 Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Front

What do cells need to perform the process of cellular respiration?

Back

Cells need Glucose (C6H12O6) and Oxygen (O2) to perform cellular respiration.

Front

What is ATP?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is a form of energy that cells can use, produced by cellular respiration.

Front

Where do plants get the energy they need to perform photosynthesis?

Back

Plants get the energy they need for photosynthesis from the sun.

Front

How many molecules of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are required to make one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) in photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis requires 6 CO2 and 6 H2O molecules to create 1 molecule of glucose.

Front

What do plants need to perform photosynthesis?

Back

Plants need Water (H2O), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Sunlight Energy to perform photosynthesis.

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

The main product of photosynthesis is Glucose (C6H12O6).

Front

What gas do plants release during photosynthesis?

Back

Plants release Oxygen (O2) during photosynthesis.

Front

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

Back

The process is called Photosynthesis.

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 equation for photosynthesis?

Back

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