Cell Respiration and Photosynthesis

Question 1

What is the molecule used as energy?

Answer 1

ATP

Question 2

Where does photosynthesis occur in plants

(which organelle)?

Answer 2

Chloroplasts

Question 3

Where does cellular respiration take place in
animal cells (which organelle)?

Answer 3

Mitochondria

Question 4

What are the 2 types of respiration? Which one

requires oxygen, and which doesn’t?

Answer 4

Cellular respiration = aerobic = requires O2

Fermentation = anaerobic = doesn’t require O2

Question 5

How are cellular respiration and photosynthesis related?

What’s the equation for either?

Answer 5

The products of one are the reactants of the other and vice versa
Photosynthesis = H2O + CO2 + energy  C6H12O6 + O2
Cellular Respiration = C6H12O6 + O2  H2O + CO2 + energy
