Plants Cellular Respiration Lesson

Where does PHOTOSYNTHESIS happen?

• mitochondria

• chloroplast

• yo mammas

• in the soil

Answer explanation

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water are converted into glucose and oxygen. Mitochondria are involved in respiration, not photosynthesis.

CELLULAR RESPIRATION occurs in......

• chloroplast

• hogwarts

• mitochondria

• the stem cell

Answer explanation

CELLULAR RESPIRATION occurs in mitochondria, which are the powerhouse of the cell, responsible for producing energy. Chloroplasts are involved in photosynthesis, while 'Hogwarts' and 'the stem cell' are not relevant to this process.

Which of the following is the correct equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?

• Carbon Dioxide + light + Water --> Oxygen+ Sugar

• Carbon Dioxide + sugar + Water --> Oxygen + light

• _Oxygen + light + Water --> Carbon Dioxide + Sugar

• Carbon Dioxide + Oxygen + Water --> Light+ Sugar

Answer explanation

The correct equation for photosynthesis is: Carbon Dioxide + light + Water --> Oxygen + Sugar. This process occurs in plants, converting light energy into chemical energy.

In which part of the plant cell does photosynthesis take place?

• Nucleus

• Mitochondria

• Chloroplast

• Ribosome

Answer explanation

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where sunlight is converted into chemical energy. The nucleus, mitochondria, and ribosomes do not perform this function.

How do trees obtain energy?

• they produce food through photoynthesis

• they eat grass

• they absorb nutrients from decomposing pants and animals

• they eat animals

Answer explanation

Trees obtain energy by producing food through photosynthesis, a process where they convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen. This is the primary way they sustain themselves.

Which process occurs inside of mitochondria?

• Photosynthesis

• Cellular Respiration

Answer explanation

Cellular respiration occurs inside mitochondria, where glucose is broken down to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell. Photosynthesis, on the other hand, takes place in chloroplasts, not mitochondria.

What is cellular respiration?

• The process by which cells convert glucose and water into carbon dioxide, oxygen, and energy in the form of ATP.

• The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of ATP.

• The process by which cells convert carbon dioxide and water into energy in the form of ATP.

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

Answer explanation

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of ATP. This is essential for energy production in living organisms.

This equation represents which process?

• photosynthesis

• cellular respiration

• Calvin cycle

• Krebs cycle

Answer explanation

The equation represents cellular respiration, a process where glucose is broken down with oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water. This is distinct from photosynthesis, which uses light to create glucose.
