Unit 4: Cellular Processes Test Review

Front

What happens to the molecules of food when a rabbit eats a carrot?

Back

The molecules get converted to energy and other types of molecules.

Front

How do organisms obtain the energy they need?

Back

Plants produce their own energy through photosynthesis, and animals get energy from eating other organisms.

Front

What does not occur during stage 1 of photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide is used to make glucose.

Front

How are cellular respiration and photosynthesis related in terms of energy?

Back

The energy captured in photosynthesis is transformed into the chemical compound used to power cellular respiration.

Front

In what way are photosynthesis and cellular respiration different?

Back

Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide, while cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide.

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What role does chlorophyll play in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, which is essential for the photosynthesis process.

Front

What is the main product of photosynthesis?

Back

The main product of photosynthesis is glucose.

Front

What is ATP and its role in cellular processes?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, used to power various cellular processes.
