Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

What is the process by which cells break down glucose to release energy?

• Photosynthesis

• Cellular respiration

• Oxidation

• Fermentation

What is the primary pigment involved in photosynthesis?

• Hemoglobin

• Melanin

• Carotene

• Chlorophyll

What is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain of cellular respiration?

• water

• oxygen

• carbon dioxide

• glucose

What is the overall equation for photosynthesis?

• C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy

• 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2

• C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O

• 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + Energy

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

• light-independent reactions and Krebs cycle

• light-dependent reactions and Calvin cycle

• chlorophyll-dependent reactions and glycolysis

What is the purpose of the light-dependent reactions in photosynthesis?

• To store excess energy

• To produce oxygen

• To convert chemical energy into light energy

• To convert light energy into chemical energy

What is the overall equation for cellular respiration?

• glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water

• carbon dioxide + water -> glucose + oxygen

• glucose + water -> carbon dioxide + oxygen

• glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water + energy (ATP)
