[Pages:3]"Respiration, Photosynthesis Practice Quiz" Photosynthesis

1. Write an equation for photosynthesis using words and/or symbols. Circle one waste product and one put a box around one useful product.

2. Summarize the process of photosynthesis. Include the light reaction, Calvin cycle, and chloroplast, ATP, and NADPH in your description.

3. Describe the role of the sun in photosynthesis

4. When a plant takes in carbon dioxide, in what form or molecule is the carbon stored after being used in photosynthesis?

5. Predict the change in the Earth's atmosphere resulting from a decrease in the rate of photosynthesis.

6. List the types of cells (prokaryotic, eukaryotic, plant and/or animal) that carry out photosynthesis. 7. Illustrate how plants exchange gases with their surroundings. Aerobic Respiration 1. Write out the equation for aerobic cellular respiration using words and/or symbols. Circle one waste product

and one put a box around one useful product.

2. Summarize the process of cellular respiration. Include mitochondria, Glycolysis, the Krebs Cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain, ATP Pyruvate, NADH, FADH2 in your description.

3. Compare and contrast photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

4. Evaluate the validity of the statement that "photosynthesis could go on indefinitely without cellular respiration". 5. List the types of cells (prokaryotic, eukaryotic, plant and/or animal) that carryout aerobic cellular respiration. 6. Predict the change in the Earth's atmosphere resulting from a decrease in the rate of respiration. 7. Most of the oxygen we breathe is used for what chemical reaction? 8. Describe the process that releases the most energy during respiration which converts a large amount of ADP to

ATP.

Anaerobic Cellular Respiration 1. Write out the equation for anaerobic respiration in yeast and humans using words and/or symbols.

2. Compare and contrast aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

3. Describe a scenario when humans would have to carry out anaerobic respiration. What are the advantages or disadvantages of anaerobic respiration?

4. If you discovered life on the surface of the moon, where the atmosphere is devoid or oxygen, predict the reaction likely used by the creatures for metabolism. Explain your rationale.
