Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Re-Teaching
Name:_______________
Date:_______
Period:_____
Standards:
BI1. f. Students know usable energy is captured from sunlight by chloroplasts and is stored
through the synthesis of sugar from carbon dioxide.
BI1. g. Students know the role of the mitochondria in making stored chemical-bond energy
available to cells by completing the breakdown of glucose to carbon dioxide.
Objective(s):

Explain how chloroplasts capture energy from the sun, and store this energy through
making sugar and carbon dioxide.
 Identify the reactants and products of cellular respiration and photosynthesis.
