|
Function of the mitochondria |
Produce energy currency of the cell,ATP through respiration & to regulate cellular metabolism |
|
|
Function of the chloroplast |
The function of the chloroplast is to convert light energy of the sun into sugars that can be used by cells |
|
|
The reactants of respiration |
Take place in the mitochondria oxygen & glucose are both reactants in the process of cellular respiration |
|
|
The products of photosynthesis |
One product of photosynthesis is glucose (sugar) which provides the basis for most food chains. The second product is oxygen comes in handy when your a aerobic organism that needs oxygen to survive |
|
|
The chemical reaction of respiration |
Respiration is a chemical process when glucose or other sugars react with oxygen to produce energy. It produces carbon dioxide & water as waste products |
|
|
The chemical reaction of photosynthesis |
The energy from sunlight drives the reaction of carbon dioxide & water molecules to produce sugar & oxygen |
|
|
ATP , glucose , oxygen , water , reactants , products |
In the photosynthesis glucose & oxygen of the product & in respiration they are the reactants. In respiration water is a product & also in photosynthesis |
|
|
Exothermic |
The reaction or process accompanied by the release of heat |
|
|
Endothermic |
A reaction or process accompanied by or requiring the absorption |
|
|
Fermentation products |
Sugars are the most common substrate of fermentation & typical examples of fermentation products are ethanol , lactic, acid, carbon dioxide , & hydrogen gds (H2) |
