Photosynthesis & Cell Respiration Review (TEKS B.11 A)

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, using carbon dioxide and water.

Front

Where does photosynthesis occur in plant cells?

Back

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.

Front

What are the inputs of photosynthesis?

Back

The inputs of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and light energy.

Front

What are the outputs of photosynthesis?

Back

The outputs of photosynthesis are glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2).

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

The equation for photosynthesis is: CO2 + light + H2O → O2 + C6H12O6.

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.

Front

Where does cellular respiration occur in cells?

Back

Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of cells.

Front

What are the inputs of cellular respiration?

Back

The inputs of cellular respiration are glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2).

Front

What are the outputs of cellular respiration?

Back

The outputs of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and ATP energy.

Front

What is the equation for cellular respiration?

Back

The equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP energy.
