The image provided is a diagram illustrating the processes of
photosynthesis and
cellular respiration. The task is to fill in the blanks with the appropriate terms from the list on the left side of the image. Let's solve this step by step.
Key Concepts:
1.
Photosynthesis:
- Occurs in the
chloroplasts.
- Uses
light energy to convert
carbon dioxide (CO₂) and
water (H₂O) into
glucose and
oxygen (O₂).
- Chemical equation:
\[
6CO_2 + 6H_2O + \text{Light Energy} \rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2
\]
2.
Cellular Respiration:
- Occurs in the
mitochondria.
- Breaks down
glucose in the presence of
oxygen (O₂) to produce
carbon dioxide (CO₂),
water (H₂O), and
chemical energy (ATP).
- Chemical equation:
\[
C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \rightarrow 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + \text{Energy (ATP)}
\]
