Microscope Imaging Techniques

Chlorophyll reflects green light, which is why humans see it as green.

The two main types of chlorophyll are blue-green and yellow-green.

ADP (adenosine diphosphate) is energy-poor, while ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is energy-rich.

<p>The two main types of cellular respiration are aerobic respiration (with oxygen) and anaerobic respiration (without oxygen).</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The first step of anaerobic respiration is glycolysis, which breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate and produces 2 ATP.</p> Signup and view all the answers
