Questions and Answers

What reactants are needed to produce glucose during photosynthesis? Circle all that apply.

carbon dioxide, water

What are the products that a student could count to calculate the rate of photosynthesis?

oxygen

When does photosynthesis occur? Explain why.

Photosynthesis occurs when conditions are right - light, pH, temp, etc. - because these factors are necessary for the process of photosynthesis to take place.

Glucose is broken down in a process (step) called _. The matter within the glucose is conserved through this process because it produces _.

<p>Glucose is broken down in a process called cellular respiration. The matter within the glucose is conserved through this process because it produces ATP (adenosine triphosphate).</p> Signup and view all the answers

What is the main difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

<p>The main difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration is the presence or absence of oxygen. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, while anaerobic respiration does not.</p> Signup and view all the answers

What are the two main differences between alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation?

<p>The two main differences between alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are the end products and the organisms that carry out the fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and carbon dioxide, while lactic acid fermentation produces lactic acid. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out by yeast and some bacteria, while lactic acid fermentation is carried out by certain bacteria and muscle cells.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

Photosynthesis

  • To produce glucose during photosynthesis, the reactants needed are light, water (H2O), and carbon dioxide (CO2).
  • The products that can be counted to calculate the rate of photosynthesis are oxygen (O2) and glucose (C6H12O6).

When Photosynthesis Occurs

  • Photosynthesis occurs in the presence of light, typically during the daytime.

Glucose Breakdown

  • Glucose is broken down in a process called cellular respiration.
  • The matter within the glucose is conserved through this process because it produces carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).

Respiration Types

  • The main difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration is the presence of oxygen (O2); aerobic respiration uses oxygen, while anaerobic respiration does not.

Fermentation Types

  • The two main differences between alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are:
    • The end products: ethanol (C2H5OH) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in alcoholic fermentation, and lactic acid (C3H6O3) in lactic acid fermentation.
    • The location: alcoholic fermentation occurs in yeast, while lactic acid fermentation occurs in muscle cells.

Anaerobic Respiration Steps

  • The steps in anaerobic respiration are:
    • Glycolysis
    • Fermentation (either alcoholic or lactic acid)

Factors Determining Respiration Type

  • The two primary factors that determine what type of respiration a cell will undergo are:
    • The presence or absence of oxygen (O2)
    • The type of cell or organism
