Due 10/25 Weekly Recap Quiz 11 (Bio A) 2 of 102 of 10 Items Question Examine the model depicting the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Drag and drop the choices that correctly pairs products and reactants with their place in the model. Drop target 1 Drop target 2 Drop target 3 oxygen and glucoseATPwater and carbon dioxide

1 answer

To correctly pair the products and reactants with their place in the model of the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration, we need to understand the general equations for both processes:

  1. Photosynthesis:

    • Reactants: carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O)
    • Products: glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2)

    The equation for photosynthesis can be summarized as: \[ 6CO_2 + 6H_2O \rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \]

  2. Cellular Respiration:

    • Reactants: glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2)
    • Products: water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2)

    The equation for cellular respiration can be summarized as: \[ C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \rightarrow 6CO_2 + 6H_2O \]

Based on this information, you can pair the items as follows:

  • Drop target 1 (Photosynthesis reactants): water and carbon dioxide
  • Drop target 2 (Photosynthesis products): oxygen and glucose
  • Drop target 3 (Cellular Respiration reactants): glucose and oxygen
  • (Cellular Respiration products): water and carbon dioxide

With this understanding, here’s how you can correctly fill in the drop targets according to the model:

  1. Drop target 1: water and carbon dioxide (for photosynthesis reactants)
  2. Drop target 2: oxygen and glucose (for photosynthesis products)
  3. Drop target 3: glucose and oxygen (for cellular respiration reactants)

This setup should help you visualize the connection between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
