Photosynthesis
The Photosynthesis Equation
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
Carbon Dioxide + Water → Sugar + Oxygen
The Cellular Respiration Equation
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
Sugar + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water

Same compounds; switch reactants & products
When fermentation occurs
After Glycolysis, with no oxygen

Lactic Acid definition
A carbohydrate byproduct used to give energy to cells when they are overworked.
ATP definition
The molecule that transfers energy to cell processes.
What happens in the Calvin Cycle
Converts CO₂ into a 6-carbon sugar.
Uses ATP and NADPH, converts back to ADP and NADP+
What happens in the Krebs Cycle
Converts two 3-carbon molecules into 6 CO₂ and ATP.
Creates several energy-carrying molecules.
Similarities in their Chemical Reactions
They both use Cycles (Calvin & Krebs)
Products of Alcoholic Fermentation
2 Ethanol & 2 Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
(& 2 NAD+)
Aerobic Definition
A process that needs oxygen to take place.
What happens in Photosystem II and Electron Transport
Converts sunlight and water into oxygen and usable electrons.
What happens in Glycolysis
Breaks down a sugar into two 3-carbon pyruvates and generates energy-carrying molecules.
The type of cell that Photosynthesis occurs in.
Products of Lactic Acid Fermentation
2 Lactic Acid
(& 2 NAD+)
Anaerobic Definition
A process that does not need oxygen to take place.
What happens in Photosystem I?
Converts sunlight and electrons into usable ATP and NADPH.
What happens in the Electron Transport Chain
Converts 6 O₂ into ATP and 6 H₂O.
Uses the energy-carrying molecules to generate a lot of ATP
