What comes first light dependent and light independent?
Light dependent
What are the reactants of cellular respiration?
Glucose and Oxygen
Name one molecule that is both produced during photosynthesis and used during cellular respiration.
Oxygen (O2) or glucose
What type of organisms utilize cellular respiration versus photosynthesis
autotrophs- photosynthesis
heterotrophs- cellular resp.
Why is photosynthesis essential for maintaining oxygen levels on Earth?
Photosynthesis produces oxygen , which is necessary for the respiration of most living organisms
Which gas is taken in by plants during photosynthesis to be used in the process?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
Which gas is required for cellular respiration and is a product of photosynthesis?
Oxygen (O2)
Where does the energy to start photosynthesis and cellular respiration come from?
The sun / solar energy
one produces gas toxic for humans to inhale while the other produces a gas that humans need to survive
cellular respiration and photosynthesis
why must cells perform cellular respiration?
It provides cells with the energy they need to function
what are the main products of photosynthesis
glucose and oxygen
What is the name of the 1st step of cellular respiration?
Glycolysis
What does ATP stand for/ what is it? It is a fancy word for ____________.
Adenosine triphosphate or energy
What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
They are opposites
When you exhale, you are releasing what?
CO2
What gives plants their green pigment
chlorophyll
In which organelle does cellular respiration take place?
Mitochondria
How do both processes contribute to keeping an ecosystem alive?
Both processes are necessary to keep ecosystems alive. Plants create glucose and oxygen which are used in cellular respiration and animals create carbon dioxide and water which are used in photosynthesis.
photosynthesis- builds
cell resp.- breaks down
how do humans use the products of photosynthesis?
For energy
In which organelle does photosynthesis take place in plant cells?
Chloroplasts
What are the main products of cellular respiration?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O)
They are both part of the _______ cycle. (this biogeochemical cycle that occurs on earth)
carbon cycle
How do the locations of photosynthesis and cellular respiration differ within a cell?
Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, while cellular respiration occurs in mitochondria.
humans breathe in this gas everyday in order to live
oxygen
