Question | Answer |
In what cellular organelle does photosynthesis occur? | Chloroplast |
What is the primary light-gathering pigment in plants? | Chlorophyll |
What do you call the plant pigments, other than chlorophyll, that help cells to trap light? | Thylakoid |
In which step of photosynthesis is light used to split water and release oxygen as a produce? | The Light Reaction |
What does photosynthesis mean? | This is the process at which cells use light energy to make organic compounds from inorganic
(BSCS biology. a molecular approach. (2006 p. 836). New York: Glencoe/McGraw-Hill.) |
What is the equation for photosynthesis? | 6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 |
Where is the energy used in photosynthesis obtained? | It is obtained from sunlight or artificial light |
What are the tiny sac-like structures in chloroplasts that contains the chlorophyll? | Granum |
What are the products of photosynthesis? | C6H12O6 + 6O2 (glucose and oxygen) |
What are the reactants of photosynthesis? | 6CO2 + 6H2O (carbon dioxide and water) |
How many ATP are produced by glycolysis? | 4,however 2 are used during the glcolysis reactions. |
What are the products of cellular respiration? | 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy (ATP)+ Heat |
What are the raw products for cellular respiration? | C6H12O6 + 6O2 |
What type of respiration follows glycolysis when no oxygen is present and causes muscle soreness? | Anaerobic |
What are the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration? | Anaerobic does not use oxygen and aerobic does use oxygen. Aerobic releases much more energy(ATP) than anaerobic. |
