Cellular Respiration Worksheet for students to complete using notes and a provided chemical equation grid.

Cellular Respiration Worksheet Solution

#### 1. Put the correct chemicals in order for the equation for cellular respiration.
The general equation for cellular respiration is:
\[ \text{Glucose} + \text{Oxygen} \rightarrow \text{Carbon Dioxide} + \text{Water} + \text{ATP (Energy)} \]

#### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. Identify the reactants and products:
- Reactants: Glucose (\(C_6H_{12}O_6\)) and Oxygen Gas (\(O_2\))
- Products: Carbon Dioxide (\(CO_2\)), Water (\(H_2O\)), and ATP (Useable Energy)

2. Fill in the grid:
- The first row uses symbols, and the second row uses names.

First Row (Symbols):
\[
C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \rightarrow 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + ATP
\]

Second Row (Names):
\[
\text{Glucose} + \text{Oxygen Gas} \rightarrow \text{Carbon Dioxide} + \text{Water} + \text{ATP (Useable Energy)}
\]

3. Complete the flowchart:
- Top row (symbols):
\[
C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \rightarrow 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + ATP
\]
- Bottom row (names):
\[
\text{Glucose} + \text{Oxygen Gas} \rightarrow \text{Carbon Dioxide} + \text{Water} + \text{ATP (Useable Energy)}
\]

Flowchart Filling:
- Top row:
\[
\boxed{C_6H_{12}O_6} + \boxed{6O_2} \rightarrow \boxed{6CO_2} + \boxed{6H_2O} + \boxed{ATP}
\]
- Bottom row:
\[
\boxed{\text{Glucose}} + \boxed{\text{Oxygen Gas}} \rightarrow \boxed{\text{Carbon Dioxide}} + \boxed{\text{Water}} + \boxed{\text{ATP (Useable Energy)}}
\]

#### 2. Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis are linked.
Question: In a plant, before it can do cellular respiration, it must make food. To do this, it needs ________ from the air, ________ from the soil, and ________. The food it produces is ________. With the ________ from photosynthesis, it can then go through cellular respiration. ________ (the food) and ________ from the air combine in cellular respiration. They form ________ (which is a gas), ________, and ________ (which provides energy). The purpose of cellular respiration is to make ________, and ________ are waste products that are let go in the process.

Solution:
1. Plants need carbon dioxide from the air, water from the soil, and sunlight to perform photosynthesis.
2. The food produced during photosynthesis is glucose.
3. During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen combine to produce carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (useable energy).
4. The purpose of cellular respiration is to produce energy (ATP), and carbon dioxide and water are waste products released during the process.
