Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Concepts

What is the main purpose of photosynthesis?

• To convert radiant energy into chemical energy

• To release energy stored in food

• To produce carbon dioxide and water

• To perform cellular respiration

Where does photosynthesis occur in plants?

• In the mitochondria

• In the chloroplasts

• In the nucleus

• In the cytoplasm

What are the products of photosynthesis?

• Carbon dioxide and water

• Glucose and oxygen

• Energy and glucose

• Oxygen and energy

What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?

• 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O₂

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

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

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

Which organisms perform photosynthesis?

• Consumers

• Producers

• Decomposers

• Third-order consumers
