B4 Flashcards
what kind of reaction is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is an exothermic reaction
how is energy transferred in photosynthesis
energy is transferred from the environment to chloroplast by light
how may glucose be used?
glucose could be used for respiration
- converting insoluble into starch for storage
- use/produce fat or oil for storage
- use/produce cellulose to strengthen the cell wall
- produce amino acid for protein synthesis
limiting factors for photosynthesis
limiting factors for photosynthesis
- temperature
- light intensity
- carbon dioxide
what does inverse proportion mean?
inverse proportion means as one product goes up, one product comes down
what does aerobic respiration mean?
aerobic respiration- with oxygen
what does anaerobic respiration mean
anaerobic respiration is without oxygen
what type of reaction is cellular respiration
cellular respiration is an exothermic reaction and occurs continuously
what is produced in anaerobic respiration?
in anaerobic respiration lactic acid is produced
what is produced in aerobic respiration?
in aerobic respiration water and carbon dioxide is produced
which respiration has more energy transferred?
aerobic respiration has more energy transferred as the glucose is fully broken down
why does organism need energy?
organisms need energy for
- keeping warm
- chemical reactions to build larger molecules
The equation for aerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration
glucose + oxygen = Carbon dioxide + water
word equation for aerobic respiration
aerobic respiration equation
c6H12O6 + o2 = co2 +H20
where does anaerobic respiration take place
anaerobic respiration takes place in yeast and plant cells
