Use the following work to help you answer the questions that follow. Photosynthesis Reading
Questions, Photosynthesis PowerPoint and accompanying notes, The Effect of Light Intensity on
Photosynthetic Rate, Photosynthesis Review, Plant Pigments and Photosynthesis, Absorption of
Chlorophyll
 State the purpose of and write a balanced equation for the process of photosynthesis.
Identify the overall reactants and products of this reaction.
 List the reactants and products of the light-dependent reaction. Where does this
process occur in the cell?
 List the reactants and products of the light-independent reaction. Where does this
process occur in the cell?
 Explain the role of each term listed and used in the Photosynthesis Review worksheet.
 Discuss how light intensity influences the rate of photosynthesis. What might be an
implication of this as it relates to human carrying capacity?
 Identify pigments used in photosynthesis and explain how chromatography is used to
identify them. How does chromatography work?
 Explain the function of plant pigments
Use the following work to help you answer the questions that follow. Cellular Respiration Reading
Questions, Cellular Respiration PowerPoint and accompanying notes, Comparing Photosynthesis
and Cellular Respiration
 State the purpose of and write the overall equation for cellular respiration. Identify
the reactants and products of this reaction
 Identify and briefly describe the 3 steps of cellular respiration (glycolysis, Krebs cycle,
and electron transport). Identify the location in the cell where these reactions occur
 Note how many molecules of ATP are produced from 1 molecule of glucose in aerobic
cellular respiration
 Describe the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
