What part of the plant absorbs water and nutrients?

Back

Roots

Front

What process do plants use to convert sunlight into energy?

Back

Photosynthesis

Front

What is the equation for cellular respiration?

Back

C6H12O6 + O2 -> CO2 + H2O + Energy

Front

What is the primary function of chloroplasts in plant cells?

Back

To absorb sunlight for photosynthesis

Front

What is the process called that releases energy from glucose in cells?

Back

Cellular respiration

Front

What gas do plants take in during photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Front

What is produced as a byproduct of photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen (O2)

Front

What is the role of sunlight in photosynthesis?

Back

It provides the energy needed for the process.

Front

What is the main sugar produced during photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose (C6H12O6)

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in cellular respiration to release energy.
