Respiration and Photosynthesis Study Guide
The test is made up of matching, multiple choice, true/false, short answer, and open response
questions. You will have the whole period to complete the quiz; however , it should not take
the entire period. Study the table on Energy Processes, the Cell Energy Cycle Gizmo, and Lesson
6 in the textbook. The quiz is about photosynthesis, respiration, and fermentation.
Directions: Complete all definitions and short answer questions.
