100

The pigment in plant cells that captures light energy for photosynthesis

Chlorophyll

100

What is the primary molecule that cells use as a source of energy for cellular respiration

Glucose (C6H12O6)

100

Name one molecule that is both produced during photosynthesis and used during cellular respiration. 

Oxygen (O2)

100

What are the main inputs for photosynthesis and cellular respiration? 

Photosynthesis: Carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), light energy. Cellular Respiration: Glucose (C6H12O6), oxygen (O2)

100

What is Mrs. Shuord's first name?

What is Traci?

200

Which gas is taken in by plants during photosynthesis to be used in the process?

Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

200

Which gas is required for cellular respiration and is a product of photosynthesis?

Oxygen (O2)

200

Explain how photosynthesis and cellular respiration are connected in terms of the cycling of matter. Use the correct chemical names 

Photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose, which are used in cellular respiration to produce carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. The carbon and oxygen atoms cycle between these processes.

200

How do the locations of photosynthesis and cellular respiration differ within a cell?

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, while cellular respiration occurs in mitochondria.

My dad, Petey Jones, is a character in this movie where teamwork and courage ignite.
His descendant rises as a leader, ready to fight.
In the heart of Jefferson, they take command.
Through trials and triumphs, my spirit shines bright,
Who am I?

Light intensity, temperature, carbon dioxide concentration and water 

500

What are the main waste products of cellular respiration? 

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O)

500

How many carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms are in photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

6 Carbon atoms 

18 Oxygen atoms

12 Hydrogen atoms

Riddle:

I dwell where life’s essence does flow,  
Transforming the sweet into energy’s glow.  
In the dance of the breath, I play my part,  
Releasing the waste as I fuel the heart.  
Though silent I am, my work is profound,  
In every living cell, my secrets abound.  
What am I?
