Front

What is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy?

Back

Photosynthesis

Front

What is the primary energy currency of cells?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)

Front

What is the equation for cellular respiration?

Back

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

Front

What are the main products of photosynthesis?

Back

Glucose and oxygen

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun.

Front

Where does cellular respiration occur in the cell?

Back

Mitochondria

Front

What are the reactants needed for cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose and oxygen

Front

What is the function of stomata in plants?

Back

Stomata are small openings that allow gas exchange (CO2 in, O2 out).

Front

What is the significance of ATP in cellular processes?

Back

ATP provides energy for various cellular activities.

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in cellular respiration to produce ATP.
