Photosynthesis
What is the primary pigment in plant cells that captures light energy for photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll
What is the primary molecule that cells use as a source of energy for cellular respiration
Glucose (C6H12O6)
Name one molecule that is both produced during photosynthesis and used during cellular respiration.
Oxygen (O2)
What are the main inputs for photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Photosynthesis: Carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), light energy. Cellular Respiration: Glucose (C6H12O6), oxygen (O2)
Why is photosynthesis essential for maintaining oxygen levels on Earth?
Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a byproduct, 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)
Explain how photosynthesis and cellular respiration are connected in terms of the cycling of matter.
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.
How do the locations of photosynthesis and cellular respiration differ within a cell?
Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, while cellular respiration occurs in mitochondria.
How do humans rely on the energy produced through cellular respiration?
To produce ATP which is necessary for performing work with in all cells.
What is the main product of photosynthesis, which serves as a source of energy for cells?
Glucose (C6H12O6)
What is the first step of cellular respiration called?
Glycolysis
How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration contribute to the energy flow within ecosystems?
Photosynthesis captures and stores solar energy in glucose, and cellular respiration releases this stored energy as ATP, which is used by organisms in ecosystems.
Compare the primary functions of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in plants.
Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, providing energy and raw materials for growth. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to produce ATP for cellular processes.
Explain how the concepts of photosynthesis and cellular respiration are relevant to agriculture and food production.
Photosynthesis produces crops' energy source (glucose), while cellular respiration in plants and animals contributes to growth and development.
In which organelle does photosynthesis take place in plant cells?
Chloroplasts
In which organelle does cellular respiration take place?
Mitochondria
What is the shared role of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) in both photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
ATP is the primary energy carrier molecule used to transfer and store energy in both processes.
what are the Yellow Pages?
a book of phone numbers
It regenerates the NAD+ needed for glycolysis to continue, allowing for the net production of ATP in the absence of oxygen.
Name one factor that affects the rate of photosynthesis
Light intensity, temperature, carbon dioxide concentration
What are the main waste products of cellular respiration?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O)
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.
What month has 28 days in it?
all of them!
When we learn about ATP, we should remember this
The LORD LOVES DETAILS, and He LOVES the details of your life most!
