Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Question 1

In what cell organelle does photosynthesis occur?

Answer 1

The chloroplast

Question 2

In what cell organelle does cellular respiration occur?

Answer 2

The mitochondria

Question 3

What organelle is only found in plants?

Answer 3

Chloroplasts

Question 4

What are the three things needed for photosynthesis (the reactants)?

Answer 4

Sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water

Question 5

Reactant

Answer 5

Needed material for a chemical reaction

Question 6

Product

Answer 6

A molecule which is formed as a result of a chemical reaction

Question 7

Which molecule provides the carbons that are used to make glucose?

Answer 7

Carbon dioxide

Question 8

Which molecule provides the hydrogens that are used to make glucose?

Answer 8

Water molecules

Question 9

What is the original source of energy for photosynthesis?

Answer 9

Light energy / Sunlight

Question 10

What are the two products of photosynthesis?

Answer 10

Glucose and oxygen

Question 11

What are the two things needed for cellular respiration (the reactants)

Answer 11

Glucose and oxygen

Question 12

What are the three products of cellular respiration

Answer 12

ATP, Carbon Dioxide, and water

Question 13

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration?

Answer 13

Photosynthesis creates the glucose and oxygen needed for cellular respiration. They are also opposites.

Question 14

What is the equation for cellular respiration

Answer 14

C6H12O6 + 6O2 –> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP

Question 15

What are the three steps of cellular respiration?

Answer 15

Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, Electron Transport

Question 16

Aerobic respiration

Answer 16

Oxygen is present, creates 36 ATP, goes through all three steps of cellular respiration

Question 17

Anaerobic Respiration

Answer 17

Oxygen isn’t present, goes through glycolysis and fermentation, only creates 2 total ATP

Question 18

Glycolysis

Answer 18

Takes place in the cytoplasm, doesn’t require oxygen, creates 2 ATP

Question 19

Krebs Cycle

Answer 19

Makes 2 ATP, also called the Citric Acid Cycle or TCA cycle

Question 20

Electron Transport Chain

Answer 20

Makes 32-34 ATP

Question 21

Cellular Respiration

Answer 21

The process that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen

Question 22

What is the process that creates lactate molecules and
ATP in muscles?

Answer 22

anaerobic glycolysis

Question 23

What colors of light does chlorophyll reflect the most?

Answer 23

Shades of green

Question 24

The process of converting sugar energy into ATP using oxygen known as

Answer 24

Cellular respiration

Question 25

What color is the pigment chlorophyll, xanthophyll, and carotenes?

Answer 25

Chlorophyll is green, xanthophyll is yellow, carotenes is orange
