Time to review nutrient cycling

Choose the correct answer from the real student responses.

Multiple Choice

b. Describe how cellular respiration moves carbon in particular.

• Where, and in what form, does the carbon used in cellular respiration come from?

• Where, and in what form, does the carbon end up after cellular respiration?

• Carbon in Cellular Respiration comes from O₂ and Glucose. It turns into ATP, CO₂ and H₂0. This creates Carbon Dioxide.

• In cellular respiration it comes in Glucose from the food we eat, and Carbon becomes CO₂ after respiration and goes out through the bloodstream.

• The carbon gets inhaled as air and then exhaled.

• It leaves in the form of CO₂ and enters in the form of food.

Multiple Choice

Summarize photosynthesis in one or two sentences, indicating the inputs and outputs.

• Takes in Carbon Dioxide, Chemical Energy and Water and turns it into Glucose and Oxygen.

• carbon + water = oxygen and glucose

• Carbon dioxide and water react with each other using light energy producing glucose and oxygen.

• Plants take in CO₂ and turn it into O₂ in the process of photosynthesis.

Multiple Choice

Describe how photosynthesis moves carbon in particular.

• Where, and in what form, does the carbon used in photosynthesis come from?

• Where, and in what form, does the carbon end up after photosynthesis?

• It takes in Carbon Dioxide from the environment and turns it into Oxygen separating the Carbon.

• Carbon in the air is taken from the air and transformed into oxygen through photosynthesis

• The carbon in photosynthesis comes in the carbon dioxide form in the air and then ends up in glucose stored in the plant in cellulose and starch.

• Plants take in CO₂ and turn it into O₂ in the process of photosynthesis
