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 (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and converts it into chemical energy.

Front

What is ATP?

Back

Adenosine triphosphate, the energy currency of the cell.

Front

What are autotrophs?

Back

Organisms that produce their own food, typically through photosynthesis.
