About this resource
This is a comprehensive quiz on Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration, created by educator Ashley Dalton and tailored to 9th grade biology students. It’s designed to provide a review of two key biological processes to sustain life. It includes 21 multiple-choice questions covering essential concepts like the equation of photosynthesis, the products of photosynthesis, the cellular respiration equation, and where each of these occurs (mitochondria or chloroplast). Likewise, it’s a valuable tool to reinforce knowledge of glucose production, light energy, carbon dioxide usage, and how oxygen is released in plant cells. Students will be able to refresh their memory by interacting with detailed questions about chemical energy transformations and metabolic reactions. You can implement it in the classroom as an interactive activity or as a homework assignment, and you can evaluate students’ understanding of chemical energy transformations, metabolic reactions, photoautotrophs, and other organisms that support life through photosynthesis and aerobic respiration.
