Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration FLASHCARD

Front

Which chemical equation represents the process of photosynthesis?

Back

carbon dioxide + water → sugar + oxygen

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

water, carbon dioxide, energy

Front

What is necessary for photosynthesis to occur?

Back

light energy

Front

Where do the two stages of cellular respiration take place and how much energy is released during each stage?

Back

1st stage: cytoplasm / releases a small amount of energy, 2nd stage: mitochondria: releases a large amount of energy

Front

What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

Back

water, carbon dioxide

Front

Carbon dioxide enters the plant through what structure?

Back

stomata

Front

What is an example of when lactic acid fermentation occurs?

Back

when doing an intense workout

Front

How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration work together to form a cycle that affects the Earth's atmosphere?

Back

They keep the levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen fairly constant.

Front

Which organelle is important for cellular respiration?

Back

mitochondria
