Photosynthesis, Cell Respiration, Cell Types, Cell Transport

How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration differ?

• Photosynthesis uses food and cellular respiration produces food.
• Photosynthesis gives off oxygen and cellular respiration uses oxygen.
• Photosynthesis uses oxygen and cellular respiration uses carbondioxide.
• Photosynthesis breaks down carbohydrates and cellular respirationproduces carbohydrates.

What is the chemical equation (formula) for photosynthesis?

• 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
• 6CO₆ + 6H₂O + light energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
• 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
• 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₆

Which statement best explains why a person shivers when he or she is cold?

• Shivering allows for loss of heat through diffusion
• Shivering warms the body, helping to maintain homeostasis
• Shivering rids the body of toxins by expelling them through the skin
• Shivering forces the lungs to breathe faster and deeper to bring in more oxygen

Which best signals that equilibrium has been reached across a selectively permeable membrane?

• The movement of water across the membrane is balanced.
• The movement of dissolved particles across the membrane begins.
• The movement of water across the membrane stops.
• The membrane will begin to allow all substances to pass through.

Why are contractile vacuoles important to unicellular organisms like paramecia?

• They help the cell move.
• They excrete wastes.
• They respond to external stimuli.
• They maintain homeostasis.
