Q

How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?

A

The products of one are the reactants of the other. Photosynthesis captures energy in the form of glucose and cellular respiration releases energy in the form of ATP

Q

The electron transport chain of cellular respiration happens were?

A

mitochondria

17
Q

What are NADP, FAD, and NAD?

A

electron carriers. When they are carrying electrons they are called NADPH, FADH and NADH

18
Q

Energy is released from ATP how?

A

When the bond is broken between phosphate groups. One of the phosphate groups is broken off, releasing energy and then ATP becomes ADP

19
Q

What factors can change the rate of photosynthesis?

A

Temperature, availability of sunlight and amount of carbon dioxide.

20
Q

What are palisade cells?

A

cells under the upper epidermis of the leaf that contain high number of chloroplasts for photosynthesis.

21
Q

What are stomata?

A

openings in a leaf that allow for gas exchange. Specifically plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen, water vapor and carbon dioxide.

22
Q

What does the waxy cuticle of a plant leaf do?

A

Protects the plant from losing too much water
