Photosynthesis/CR Test Review

Front

What are the products of photosynthesis?

Back

The products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

Back

The reactants of cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is the main purpose of photosynthesis?

Back

The main purpose of photosynthesis is to convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

Front

What is aerobic respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen to produce ATP.

Front

What is anaerobic respiration?

Back

Anaerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration that occurs without oxygen, producing less ATP.

Front

What is lactic acid fermentation?

Back

Lactic acid fermentation is a process that occurs in muscle cells when oxygen is scarce, converting glucose into lactic acid and ATP.

Front

What is the role of ATP in cellular respiration?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the main energy currency of the cell, produced during cellular respiration.

Front

What are the three main stages of cellular respiration?

Back

The three main stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.

Front

What is the Calvin Cycle?

Back

The Calvin Cycle is a series of biochemical reactions in photosynthesis that converts carbon dioxide and other compounds into glucose.

Front

How does photosynthesis relate to cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are the reactants for cellular respiration, while cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide and water, which are the reactants for photosynthesis.
