Photosynthesis and respiration

Ace your homework & exams now with Quizwiz!

A compound that is synthesized by both humans and geranium plant is

ATP

The oxidation of a glucose molecule results in the synthesis of ATP, water, and carbon dioxide. This process is know as

Aerobic repiration

In living plants, when does respiration occur

All the time

Within a plant cell, the glucose formed as a result of photosynthesis may be used directly as

An energy source during cellular respiration

Most animals make energy available for cell activity by transferring the potential enregy of glucose to ATP. This process occurs during

Both aerobic and anaerobic respiration

To start the oxidation of one molecule of glucose, two molecules of ATP must used because

Certain chemical reactions in a living cell require activation energy.

During the process of cellular respiration energy is released from

Chemical bonds

What does the process of photosynthesis produce?

Glucose, which is metabolized into more complex carbohydrates by dehydration synthesis

Which color light is least important to a green plant during photosynthesis activities

Green

Which statement concerning the process of aerobic respiration is true

It is quite similar in all organism

In humans, which substance is produced anaerobically during strenuous activity

Lactic Acid

Autotrophs might survive when heterotrophs cannot, because autotrophs are able to

Make there own food

The aerobic respiration of a molecule of glucose releases more energy than anaerobic respiration of a molecule of glucose because, in aerobic respiration,

More chemicals bonds are broken

Which process provides most of the oxygen found in Earth's atmosphere

Photosyntheesis

Photosynthesis and respiration are alike in that they both

Require specific catalysts

During which process is oxygen used by green plants

Respiration

In green plant cells, oxygen is used primarily for the process of

Respiration

The greatest number of molecules of ATP is produced as a result of

aerobic respiration

In the process of photosynthesis, chlorophyll serves as

an energy converter

A similarity in the aerobic respiratory activity of animals is the

gasses used and produced

In photosynthesis, chlorophyll functions in changing

light energy to chemical bonds energy

In animals, the organelles in which cellular respiration occurs is know as the

minochondria

Which process is most closely associated with the regulation of water loss from the leaves of trees?

movement of water through leaf openings controlled by the guard cell

Which process uses energy to combine inorganic molecules to synthesize organic molecules

photosynthesis

Which of the following processes releases the greater amount of energy

the oxidation of one glucose molecule to carbon dioxide and water molecules
