Is the following statement true or false? Unlike animals,which make many ATP by aerobic respiration, plantsmake all of their ATP by photosynthesis
There is a constant flow of energy between the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
Photosynthesis produces a small amount of ATP energy which is used in cellular respiration to produce
more ATP molecules for use in cellular functions.
Place the following statements in order (some have been done for you) to summarize how the two
processes work together to produce usable energy for all living organisms.
1. Light energy is absorbed by the thylakoid membranes in chloroplasts.
2.
3.
4. PGAL is used to make glucose molecules (energy storage).
5.
6.
7.
8.
9. NADH from the Krebs cycle and O2 from the light reactions of photosynthesis are used in the electron
transport chain to create a proton gradient across the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
10.
11.
Energy from ATP and NADPH is used to fix CO2 and form PGAL (Calvin-Benson cycle)
Pyruvate is broken down into CO2 and acetyl CoA in the matrix
Krebs cycle makes NADH molecules
The absorbed energy is used to make ATP and…
Which of the following statements about the challenges of C3 photosynthesis under hot conditions
is TRUE?
O When they close stomatal cells, they save water but lose too much O2.
O Rubisco has a higher affinity for CO2, making the rate of photosynthesis too rapid.
When stomatal cells close, photorespiration increases and CO2 is lost.
C3 plants have to spend energy to store carbon in a separate specialized cell.

- Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and carotenoids. Chlorophyll directly absorbs light for use in photosynthesis. Carotenoids absorb light and transfer the energy from light to chlorophyll. The efficiency of photosynthesis varies with the wavelengths of the light that illuminates the chloroplasts. In an experiment to study the relationship between the incoming light wavelengths and the chemical reactions of photosynthesis using a species of green algae, a researcher labeled the CO2 supply to the algae with 14C, and the H2O with 18O. Which of the following results is expected? More 14C is found in the algae when it is illuminated by green light than when it is illuminated by blue-violet and red light. More 18O is found in the algae when it is illuminated by green light than when it is illuminated by blue-violet and red light. More 14C is found in the algae when it is illuminated by blue-violet and red light than when it is illuminated by green light. More 18O is found in the algae when…arrow_forwardRead each statement carefully and determine if it is true or false for photosynthesis:arrow_forwardWhy do the cells of photosynthetic organisms contain accessory pigments? Accessory pigments provide a backup source of energy if the main pigment type fails. Accessory pigments direct light toward the primary pigment. Accessory pigments optimize the amount of energy that can be harvested in specific environments. Accessory pigments provide structural support for the primary pigments. Accessory pigments allow photosynthesis to occur at any time of the day.arrow_forward
