  • Cells break down glucose for energy in the process of cellular respiration.
  • The main energy product of photosynthesis is glucose.
  • Oxygen is a by-product of photosynthesis.
  • All living things need oxygen from the atmosphere for cellular respiration.
  • Two compounds are the waste products of cellular respiration: H2O and CO2.
  • Autotrophs take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere for photosynthesis.
  • The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis make ATP and NADPH by splitting water.
  • Chlorophyll is the green pigment that plants need for photosynthesis.
  • The main energy unit of cellular respiration which cells can use is ATP, not glucose.
  • Thylakoid membranes are found inside chloroplasts.
  • The formula for glucose is C6H12O6.
  • The stroma and thylakoid membranes are found in the chloroplast
  • The powerhouse of the cell is the mitochondria.
  • The site of glucose production in a plant is made in the stroma.
  • Anaerobic respiration, also known as fermentation, produces 2 ATP.
  • In the second phase of photosynthesis, glucose is made from carbon dioxide
  • The earth is believed to be 4.6 billion years old.
  • Aerobic respiration consists of glycosis, the Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain.
  • ATP and NADPH are energy units used in photosynthesis and respiration.
  • Along with plants, some bacteria can perform photosynthesis.
