STAAR Review Unit 4: Energy Systems

Front

What is the main product of cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose

Front

What gas do plants release during photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen

Front

How does light distance affect the rate of photosynthesis?

Back

The less distance between the light and the algae, the greater the rate of photosynthesis.

Front

Which organisms have mitochondria for cellular respiration?

Back

Both plants and animals

Front

Where does photosynthesis occur in plant cells?

Back

Chloroplasts

Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

The process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, which is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose.

Front

What is cellular respiration?

Back

The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What are the two main types of cellular respiration?

Back

Aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

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