Photosynthesis & Cell Respiration

Question 1

In which type of cell does photosynthesis take place?

Answer 1

In the Plant cell

Question 2

In which cell structure does photosynthesis take place?

Answer 2

Chloroplasts

Question 3

What is the energy input in photosynthesis?

Answer 3

Sunlight. Sunlight starts the process of photosynthesis.

Question 4

What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

Answer 4

Sunlight, Water, & Carbon Dioxide. The sunlight energy combines with the reactants (water & carbon dioxide) to form glucose (sugar) and oxygen.

Question 5

How do each reactant enter the organism during photosynthesis?

Answer 5

Carbon dioxide - passes through the holes in the leaves called stomata

Water - absorbed by the roots & travels to the leaves

Sunlight - absorbed by chlorphyll in the leaves (which is located in the chloroplasts)

Question 6

What are the 2 products of photosynthesis?

Answer 6

Oxygen (O2) & Glucose (C6 H12 O6)

Question 7

How does the process of photosynthesis occur from beginning to end?

Answer 7

1. Sunlight is absorbed by the cholorphyll in the chloroplast during the daytime.
2. Water and minerals is absorbed through the roots & transferred to the chloroplasts in the leaves.
3. Carbon Dioxide enters the leaves through the stomata.
4. The water & carbon dioxide combine with the light energy to create Oxygen and Glucose (sugar) .
5. Oxygen is released as a waste product. Glucose is stored in the plant.

Question 8

What is photosynthesis?

Answer 8

The process plants use to make their own food.

Question 9

In which type of cell does cellular respiration occur?

Answer 9

Plants & animals cells

Question 10

What is cellular respiration?

Answer 10

A process by which cells break down glucose to produce useable energy.

Question 11

In which cell structure does cellular respiration occur?

Answer 11

Stage one: cytoplasm
Stage two: mitochondria

Question 12

What is cytoplasm?

Answer 12

The fluid that fills the cell

Question 13

What is mitochondria?

Answer 13

The powerhouse of the cell

Question 14

What happens in stage one of celluar respiration?

Answer 14

Glucose is broken down in smaller molecules relesing a small amount of energy

Question 15

What happens in stage two of celluar respiration?

Answer 15

Stage two occurs in the mitocondria when glucose and oxygen are mixed to produce ATP

Question 16

What is the energy output?

Answer 16

ATP

Question 17

What is a usable form of energy which help cells preform a wide range of function during celluar respiration?

Answer 17

ATP

Question 18

What are the reactants of celluar respiration?

Answer 18

Oxygen and Glucose

Question 19

What are the products of celluar respiration?

Answer 19

ATP, water, carbon dioxide

Question 20

What are the entire process of Celluar Respiration from beggining to end?

Answer 20

1. In the cytoplasm, glucose is broken down into smaller molecules releasing a small amount of energy
2. In the mitochondria, the smaller molecules combine with oxygen
3. When the oxygen and glucose is mixed together it creates ATP, water, and carbon dioxide
4. ATP is the energy and water is used in photosyntisis for plants or by peeing it out for the animals, for the carbon dioxide the plants use it for photosynthesis and the animals breath it out
