This is the process by which cells break down glucose to release energy.
What is cellular respiration?
This is the organelle where photosynthesis takes place.
What is the chloroplast?
Cells need this gas for the most efficient type of cellular respiration.
What is oxygen?
The main source of energy for photosynthesis comes from this.
What is sunlight?
Photosynthesis occurs in plants, but cellular respiration occurs in this type of organism.
What are all eukaryotic cells (plants, animals, fungi)?
The primary energy molecule produced by cellular respiration is called this.
What is ATP?
The green pigment in plants that captures sunlight is called this.
What is chlorophyll?
Cellular respiration helps organisms do this every day, like moving and growing.
What is perform life processes?
The tiny openings on leaves that allow gas exchange are called this.
What are stomata?
Photosynthesis stores energy in glucose, while cellular respiration does this to release energy.
What is breaking down glucose?
Cellular respiration takes place in this organelle.
What is the mitochondrion?
Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into this sugar.
What is glucose?
The waste products of respiration can be used by plants in this process.
What is photosynthesis?
The “waste” gas of cellular respiration is used by plants in photosynthesis.
What is carbon dioxide?
The gas used in photosynthesis is produced as a byproduct of cellular respiration and vice versa. Name one of these gases.
What is carbon dioxide or oxygen?
Photosynthesis requires energy, while cellular respiration does this.
What is releases energy?
The gas released as a byproduct of photosynthesis is this.
What is oxygen?
Cellular respiration also produces this gas as a waste product.
What is carbon dioxide?
The chemical equation for photosynthesis is the reverse of this process.
What is cellular respiration?
Photosynthesis converts light energy into chemical energy, while cellular respiration converts chemical energy into this form.
What is ATP (usable energy)?
Cellular respiration happens in almost all of these types of organisms.
What are eukaryotic cells (or all living cells)?
Photosynthesis primarily occurs in these parts of the plant.
What are the leaves?
The energy in glucose comes originally from this source.
What is the sun?
The oxygen produced in photosynthesis comes from this molecule.
What is water (H₂O)?
Both photosynthesis and cellular respiration are part of this cycle that keeps energy and matter moving through the environment.
What is the carbon cycle?
