Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are important cell energy processes. They are connected in ways that are vital for the survival of almost all forms of life on earth. In this activity you will look at these two processes at the cellular level and explore their interdependence.

Instructions:

Use the models to answer all of the questions; spell your answers the same way that the models do.

If it is obvious to me that you are attempting to look up answers on the internet, or using any other source other than the information on this formative, you will not receive any points.

B.2.1 Use a model to illustrate how photosynthesis transforms light energy into stored chemical energy.

B.2.2 Use a model to illustrate that cellular respiration is a chemical process whereby the bonds of food molecules and oxygen molecules are broken and the bonds in new compounds are formed resulting in a net transfer of energy.

B.2.4 Develop a model to illustrate the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cycling of carbon among the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere.

Learning Goals:

  • I can use a model to illustrate how photosynthesis can transform light energy into stored chemical energy.

  • I can use a model to illustrate how cellular respiration uses glucose obtained from food, and oxygen in a series of chemical reactions to produce ATP in a net transfer of energy.

  • I can use a model to illustrate the role of photosynthesis in the cycling of carbon between the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere.

  • I can use a model to illustrate the role of cellular respiration in the cycling of carbon between the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere.

Carefully consider and discuss the following statement:

“Plants can survive on their own, because they make their own food. Animals can’t survive on their own but need plants for survival.”

Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?
