Study Notes
Photosynthesis Overview
- Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using chlorophyll and sunlight.
- Chemical formula: 6CO2 + 12H2O → (with chlorophyll & sunlight) C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O.
- Reaction takes place in chloroplasts of plant cells, primarily during daylight.
Photosynthesis Word Equation
- Carbon Dioxide + Water → (with chlorophyll & sunlight) Glucose + Water + Oxygen.
- Plays a critical role in capturing energy from sunlight for plant growth.
Cellular Respiration Overview
- Cellular respiration breaks down glucose in the presence of oxygen, releasing carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (energy).
- Chemical formula: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36-38 ATP.
- Occurs in mitochondria of cells, providing energy for metabolic processes.
Cellular Respiration Word Equation
- Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP.
- Essential for converting stored energy from glucose into a usable form for cellular functions.
