Before Photosynthesis
What is the main source of energy for photosynthesis?
Sunlight
This is where water is used in the chloroplast.
The Thylakoid
This molecule is used for energy in the cell.
What is ATP
What are the reactants for photosynthesis?
Water (H2O), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Sunlight Energy
What does anaerobic respiration mean?
Processes that don't require oxygen, but also don't make as much energy.
These are the reactants of cellular respiration
Oxygen and Glucose
What are the products of photosynthesis?
Double points if you can write it as a formula!
Glucose and Oxygen
C6H12O6 and O2
Where does glycolysis occur?
Inside or outside of the mitochondria?
What is the relationship between cellular respiration and breathing.
Carbon dioxide is a product of cellular respiration that is exhaled out
What does aerobic respiration and lactic acid fermentation have in common (other than making ATP)?
They both do glycolysis.
During our lab, we used an acid indicator that changed color in the presence of what?
Carbon Dioxide
How is energy released from ATP?
When the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate group is broken.
What is the name of the cycle that creates sugars from CO2 in the chloroplasts?
The Calvin Cycle
What does ATP Synthase do in cellular respiration?
Converts ADP to ATP
Where do light-independent reactions occur?
The stroma (empty space in the chloroplast)
How is photosynthesis and cellular respiration different?
Photosynthesis converts sunlight energy into sugars, and cellular respiration converts sugars into energy.
