4: Cellular Respiration Flashcards
How do we get energy from food?
both autotrophs and heterotrophs use cellular respiration to extract the chemical energy stored in the bonds between atoms then use that energy to support all life activities
Who uses cellular respiration?
both heterotrophs and autotrophs
What is the chemical equation of cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 –> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
What is ATP?
currency of energy in the cell

b) performed only by autotrophs
c) performed by both autotrophs and heterotrophs
d) required chlorophyll
e) releases oxygen (O2)
f) releases CO2
g) converts inorganic matter into organic matter
a) photosynthesis
b) photosynthesis
c) cellular respiration
