Cell Respiration & Photosynthesis

Cell Respiration & Photosynthesis

Similarities and Differences

CELL RESPIRATION

• Chemical reaction that occurs in both plant and animal cells

• Takes place in the mitochondria

• Glucose combines with oxygen (reactants)

• Creates the products: CO₂, H₂O, and ATP (Energy)

• nucleus

• ribosome

• mitochondria

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is a PRODUCT of cell respiration?

• glucose

PHOTOSYNTHESIS

• Chemical reaction only in plant cells

• Happens in the chloroplast (absorbs sunlight)

• Reactants: CO₂, H₂O, Sun energy

• Products: Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and Oxygen (O₂)

• Reactants and products = opposite of Cell Respiration
