Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Front

Which gas is removed from the atmosphere during photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.

Front

What is the role of Carbon Dioxide in Photosynthesis?

Back

It is used to 'fix' carbon in the Calvin Cycle.

Front

Aerobic respiration is different from anaerobic respiration in that aerobic respiration needs...

Back

Oxygen is required for aerobic respiration.

Front

What is the purpose of photosynthesis?

Back

The purpose of photosynthesis is to make glucose.

Front

What are the PRODUCTS for aerobic cellular respiration?

Back

The products of aerobic cellular respiration are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.

Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

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

Front

What is the main pigment involved in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll is the main pigment involved in photosynthesis.

Front

What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?

Back

The two main stages of photosynthesis are the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (Calvin Cycle).

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy -> C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.
