Unit 6 Flashcards
(10 cards)
Who does photosynthesis?
Plants, algae, and cyanobacteria
Where does photosynthesis happen
In the chloroplast and cytoplasm
How does photosynthesis happen?
By using light to combine CO2 into glucose to create food molecules
Equation of photosynthesis?
CO2 + H20 + Light –> C6H1206 +02
What are the three forms of energy?
Sunlight–> Glucose–(cellular resp.)–> ATP
What does ATP stand for?
Adenosine tri phosphate
Who is cellular resp done by?
Eukaryotes-> Plants, animals, fungi and protists
Where is cellular resp done?
It is done in the mitochondria
How is cellular resp done?
By splitting the glucose into smaller pieces to make ATP which powers cellular processes
Equation of cellular resp?
C6H12+02–>H20+C02+ATP
