Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Assessment

Answer the following questions to demonstrate your understanding of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Read each question carefully and respond as directed. Some questions are multiple choice, while others require a short written answer or a fill-in-the-blank response.

This section focuses on the basic concepts, reactants, and products of photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Which of the following are the main reactants needed for photosynthesis?

What are the main products of cellular respiration?

Write the balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis using the written equation below:

Carbon dioxide + water —> glucose + oxygen
