Quarter 1 Assessment Review
What is cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products.
What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is represented by the chemical formula C6H12 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (as ATP).
Where does cellular respiration occur?
Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondrion
What gas is produced by Photosynthesis?
oxygen
What are the reactants for cellular respiration?
oxygen and glucose
Why do we see the leaves green?
pigment
This gas enters through "holes" in the leaf. What are they called?
stomata
What does photosynthesis mean?
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water
What gas enters the leaf?
Carbon dioxide
What is ATP?
Adenosine triphosphate is a nucleoside triphosphate a small molecule used in cells as a coenzyme.
From your photosynthesis lab, what evidence did you observe that photosynthesis occur?
Light and water were required for the leaves to float to the top
What is Photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to harness energy from sunlight into chemical energy
What are the products for cellular respiration?
Oxygen and glucose are both reactants in the process of cellular respiration
What are the products of photosynthesis?
Oxygen is produced
What is the relationship between Cellular respiration and Photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. While water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
Write the photosynthesis chemical equation.
The balanced equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2 Photosynthesis can be represented using a chemical equation: Carbon dioxide + water + light energy gives a carbohydrate + oxygen.
What are the reactants for photosynthesis?
The reactants of photosynthesis are water, light and carbon dioxide
Can a plant survive without oxygen? Explain.
Yes because they keep producing it
What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration?
aerobic respiration operates using oxygen,anaerobic respiration functions without the presence of oxygen.
What is Mitochondria?
an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur.
What structure makes the pigment for the plant?
biochromes
What organelle does photosynthesis occur?
chloroplast
