About this resource

This quiz focuses on cellular respiration, a fundamental process in cell biology that targets middle school students at the 7th and 8th grade level. The questions comprehensively assess students' understanding of the cellular respiration equation, including the identification of reactants (glucose and oxygen) and products (carbon dioxide, water, and ATP energy). Students need to grasp the chemical formula representations, understand the role of mitochondria as the cellular organelle where respiration occurs, and distinguish between cellular respiration and photosynthesis as complementary but opposite processes. The quiz also tests knowledge of stomata as gas exchange structures and requires students to trace energy flow from the sun through plants to animals, demonstrating the interconnected nature of biological energy systems. Created by Jennifer Hathaway, a Biology teacher in the US who teaches grades 7 and 8. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool that can be deployed during various phases of instruction on cellular respiration. Teachers can use it as a warm-up activity to gauge prior knowledge before introducing new concepts, as guided practice during direct instruction, or as a review session before summative assessments. The quiz works particularly well for homework assignments that reinforce classroom learning and help students identify areas needing additional study. The question format supports quick feedback cycles that allow teachers to adjust instruction based on student performance patterns. This assessment aligns with Next Generation Science Standards MS-LS1-7, which requires students to develop models to describe how food molecules are rearranged through chemical reactions to form new molecules that support growth and release energy.
