Cellular Processes Quiz

A model of two structures that perform cellular processes is shown. What are the products of the cellular processes in these organelles?

• I: glucose and carbon dioxide II: oxygen and water

• I: carbon dioxide and oxygen II: glucose and water

• I: oxygen and glucose II: water and carbon dioxide

• I: carbon dioxide and water II: glucose and oxygen

Answer explanation

The correct products of the cellular processes in these organelles are carbon dioxide and water for I, and glucose and oxygen for II.

When mammals get an infection, their internal body temperature often rises 2 to 3 degrees Celsius. The body gets the energy it needs to react to an infection by —

• increasing the rate of cellular division

• increasing the rate of cellular respiration in mitochondria

Answer explanation

When mammals get an infection, their body increases the rate of cellular respiration in mitochondria to provide the energy needed to react to the infection, resulting in a rise in internal body temperature.

Which statement explains how producers are dependent upon consumers for their survival?

• Consumers produce carbon dioxide for producers to use during photosynthesis.

• Consumers supply oxygen for producers to undergo aerobic respiration.

Answer explanation

Producers depend on consumers for carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, making this the correct choice.
