Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis

Ace your homework & exams now with Quizwiz!

What substances are produced by fermentation?

Ethanol

During photosynthesis, the products of cellular respiration are changed into what?

Glucose and Oxygen

What are the reactants of cellular respiration

Glucose and Oxygen

Compare and contrast photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

While photosynthesis requires energy and produces food, cellular respiration breaks down food and releases energy. Plants perform both photosynthesis and respiration, while animals can only perform respiration. Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of cells. Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria of cells.

ATP formation by glycolosis takes place where?

in the Cytoplasm

How many ATP are released during fermentation?

2

Aerobic Respiration

A process most living things undergo to use food.

Photosynthesis

A series of chemical reactions that convert light energy, water, and CO2, into the food energy molecule glucose and give off energy

Cellular Respiration

A series of chemical reactions that convert the energy in food molecules into a usable form of energy called ATP.

How does photosynthesis benefit heterotrophs?

It creates food they can eat.

Which of the following organisms carry out cellular respiration: a dog, a corn plant, or yeast

All of the above!

What are the products of photosynthesis

C6H12O6 and O2

Identify reactants and products in a cellular respiration and photosynthesis process.

Cellular Respiration reactants are glucose and oxygen. Products for cellular respiration are H2O, ATP, and CO2. Photosynthesis reactants are H2O and CO2. Product for photosynthesis is glucose.

Which of the following is not a product of fermentation: oxygen, carbon dioxide, lactic acid, ethanol?

Oxygen

Describe the cellular respiration and photosynthesis process.

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants create their own food by turning light energy into chemical energy. Cellular respiration is the process by which living things convert oxygen and glucose to carbon dioxide and water, thereby yielding energy.

Which of the following statements is false: 1. Glycolosis can occur with or without oxygen. 2. Glycolosis occurs in Mitochondria 3. Glycolosis is the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. 4. Glycolosis takes place in the Cytoplasm.

2. Glycolosis occurs in the mitochondria

Which of the following statements is true: 1. Plants cannot respire because they have no mitochondria 2. Photosynthesis produces energy 3. Animals cannot photosynthesize. 4. Plants get energy by photosynthesis only.

3. Animals cannot photosynthesize.

Anaerobic Respiration

A form of incomplete inter cellular breakdown of sugar or other organic compounds in the absence of oxygen that releases energy.

Glycolisis

A process by which glucose, a sugar molecule, is broken down into smaller molecules. This process produces some ATP molecules and uses energy for other ATP molecules.

Fermentation

A reaction that eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells can use to obtain energy from food when oxygen levels are low.

Products

A substance that is formed as a result of a chemical reaction.

Reactants

A substance that is going to combine to make a new one.

Which of the following processes produces the most ATP: 1. Glycolosis 2. Fermentation 3. Aerobic Respiration 4. Anaerobic Respiration

Aerobic Respiration

Compare and contrast aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration.

Aerobic respiration, a process that uses oxygen, and anaerobic respiration, a process that doesn't use oxygen. They both occur in the cytoplasm and mitochondria. Aerobic occurs in most cells; while, Anaerobic respiration occurs mostly in prokaryotes. Products of aerobic respiration are Carbon dioxide, water, ATP. Products of anaerobic respiration are Carbon dixoide and ATP. Reactants for aerobic are Carbon dixoide, water, and ATP. Reactants for anaerobic is glucose.

Fermentation of glucose by yeast produces what?

Alcohol and Carbon Dioxide

What captures energy from sunlight during photosynthesis?

Chlorophyll

The organelle in which photosynthesis takes place is what?

Chloroplast

Glycolosis takes place in ____ and only _____ are released.

Cytoplasm; 2 ATP

What cells obtain energy through fermentation?

Eukaryote and Prokaryote

What are the products of photosynthesis?

Glucose and oxygen

What are the products of cellular respiration

H2O (water), ATP, and CO2

What are the reactants of photosynthesis

H2O and CO2

What causes cramps during exercise?

Lactic acid fermentation

Why is aerobic respiration is more efficient than anaerobic respiration?

More ATP molecules are released during the process.

What is the process by which glucose molecules are broken in small molecules releasing 2 ATP molecules?

glycolosis
