Cards (27)

  • cellular respiration

    the process by which cells use oxygen to produce energy from food (specifically, glucose)
  • Photosynthesis
    Plants use the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen
  • reactants (ingredients) of photosynthesis

    Carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and solar energy
  • reactants of cellular respiration
    C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6O2 (oxygen)
  • products of photosynthesis
    glucose and oxygen
  • products of cellular respiration

    carbon dioxide, water, and energy (ATP)
  • Organelle responsible for photosynthesis
    Chloroplast
  • organelle responsible for cellular respiration
    mitochondria
  • T/F: Plants DO NOT perform cellular respiration
    False
  • Which process makes food?
    photosynthesis
  • which process converts sugar to ATP?
    cellular respiration
  • what does CO2 represent?
    carbon dioxide
  • What is C6H12O6?
    glucose
  • What is H2O?
    water
  • What type of group produces their own food from inorganic compounds?
    Autotrophs
  • photosynthesis
    what process is this?
  • Where does photosynthesis take place?

    Chloroplast

    Chloroplasts use energy from light to transform carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen.
  • Where does cellular respiration take place?
    mitochondria
  • which process is only found in producers?
    photosynthesis
  • which process is found in producers, consumers, and decomposers?
    cellular respiration
