Cellular Respiration

What type of molecule is ATP, the energy currency of the cell?

• Carbohydrate

• Lipid

• Protein

• Nucleic Acid

How do the reactants and products of cellular respiration compare to those of photosynthesis?

• They are identical

• They are completely unrelated

• They are largely opposite

• They share only water as a common substance
