What is the base pairing rule in DNA?

Back

In a double-stranded DNA molecule, Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T) and Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C).

What is photosynthesis?

Back

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll, converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

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

How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration relate to each other?

Back

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, while cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What type of bond joins the nitrogenous bases in DNA?

Back

Hydrogen bonds join the nitrogenous bases in DNA.

Front

What is the role of ATP in cellular processes?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) serves as the primary energy carrier in cells, providing energy for various biochemical reactions.

Front

What happens to the rates of photosynthesis and cellular respiration when temperature drops?

Back

The rates of both photosynthesis and cellular respiration would decrease.

Front

What are the products of photosynthesis?

Back

The products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of hydrogen bonds in DNA structure?

Back

Hydrogen bonds provide stability to the DNA double helix by holding the two strands together.
