Y8 Respiration and Inheritance Quiz

What is the definition of respiration?

• The process of inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide

• The process of converting glucose into energy

• The process of photosynthesis in plants

• The process of digestion in animals

In which part of a cell does respiration take place?

• Nucleus

• Ribosome

• Mitochondria

• Chloroplast

What is the word equation for respiration?

• Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy

• Carbon Dioxide + Water → Glucose + Oxygen

• Glucose + Water → Carbon Dioxide + Oxygen + Energy

• Oxygen + Water → Glucose + Carbon Dioxide + Energy

What is the balanced symbol equation for respiration?

• C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy

• 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

• C6H12O6 + 6H2O → 6CO2 + 6O2 + Energy

• 6O2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6CO2 + Energy

• Using litmus paper, which turns red

• Using iodine solution, which turns blue-black

• Using Benedict's solution, which turns orange

What is aerobic respiration?

• Aerobic respiration is the process of producing cellular energy by converting light into energy.
• Aerobic respiration is the process of producing cellular energy through the consumption of oxygen.
• Aerobic respiration is the process of producing cellular energy through photosynthesis.
• Aerobic respiration is the process of producing cellular energy without the consumption of oxygen.

What is anaerobic respiration?

• Anaerobic respiration produces more ATP than aerobic respiration.
• Anaerobic respiration requires sunlight to occur.
• Anaerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration that occurs in the absence of oxygen.
• Anaerobic respiration occurs only in plants.

What is combustion?

• The process of burning something

• The process of photosynthesis

• The process of digestion

• The process of respiration

What is the equation for the complete combustion of methane?

• CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

• CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

• CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + H2O

• CH4 + O2 → CO2 + 2H2O
