Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration

Front

What is the primary goal of Photosynthesis?

Back

To produce glucose for the plant.

Front

Does photosynthesis most commonly occur in heterotrophs or autotrophs?

Back

Autotrophs.

Front

What are the products of the light dependent reaction in photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen, ATP, and NADPH.

Front

What are the correct steps, in order, of cellular respiration?

Back

Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, Electron Transport Chain.

Front

Energy is released from ATP when:

Back

A phosphate group is broken.

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, to convert it into chemical energy.

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

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

Front

What is the Krebs Cycle?

Back

A series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to generate energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA.
