1.

Where do plants get the energy they need to perform photosynthesis?

a)

The soil

b)

The sun

c)

The rain

d)

Bees

2.

What do plants need to perform photosynthesis?

a)

Love

b)

Soil with a high nitrogen (N) content

c)

Water (H2O) + Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Sunlight Energy

d)

Pollinators such as bees and hummingbirds

3.

What is created as a result of Photosynthesis

a)

ATP Energy

b)

Water (H2O) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

c)

Proteins and lipids

d)

Glucose (C6H12O6) + Oxygen (O2)

4.

What does C6H12O6 tell you about the glucose molecule?

a)

That it has 6 carbon (C) atoms, 12 hydrogen (H) atoms, and 6 oxygen (O) atoms

b)

That it has too many atoms for us to count, so we just assign random numbers to show that its really big

c)

That it is smaller than a water (H2O) atom

d)

That it has 12 carbon (C) atoms, 12 hydrogen (H) atoms, and 12 oxygen (O) atoms

5.

In which cell organelle does PHOTOSYNTHESIS take place?

a)

The chloroplast

b)

The mitochondria

c)

The cytoplasm

d)

The golgi apparatus

6.

What process must cells undergo to convert the energy stored in glucose (C6H12O6) into useable cell energy (ATP)?

a)

Photosynthesis

b)

Cellular respiration

c)

Ketosis

d)

The macarena

7.

What do cells need to perform the process of cellular respiration?

a)

Sunlight, water (H2O) + carbon dioxide (CO2)

b)

Proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids

c)

Lactose (C12H22O11) + soil

d)

Glucose (C6H12O6) + Oxygen (O2)

8.

What is created as a result of cellular respiration?

a)

Glucose (C6H12O6) + Carbon dioxide (CO2)

b)

Water (H2O) + Carbon dioxide (CO2) + ATP Energy

c)

Proteins and lipids

d)

Chloroplasts

9.

Where in the cell does cellular respiration take place?

a)

The chloroplasts

b)

The golgi apparatus

c)

The mitochondria

d)

The cell wall

10.

Based upon the equation shown, how many molecules of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are required to make one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) as a result of photosynthesis?

a)

It takes 12 Oxygen and 6 Hydrogen atoms

b)

Photosynthesis requires 6 CO2 + 6 H2O molecules to create 1 molecule of glucose

c)

2 CO and 2 HO

d)

This is a trick question, photosynthesis does not require CO2 or H2O

11.

How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?

a)

They're not, they are completely different processes and neither the products nor reactants of either process are related

b)

Both require sunlight to take place

c)

The products of photosynthesis (C6H12O6 + O2) are the same as the reactants of cellular respiration. The products of cellular respiration (CO2 + H2O) are the same as the reactants of photosynthesis

d)

They both take place in animal cells

12.

True of false: Plants do not need to undergo cellular respiration

a)

True

b)

False
