CORRECT QUESTION AND ANSWERS
[GRADED A+]
cellular respiration - the process in which cells make ATP by breaking down organic
compounds
photosynthesis - the process in which autotrophs convert light energy into chemical
energy
which types of organisms undergo cellular respiration - both autotrophs and
heterotrophs
what happens when organic compounds are broken down into simpler compounds -
energy is released

, what is the energy released by the organic compound mostly used to do - produce ATP
the products of cellular respiration (3) - CO2, water, and ATP
two stages of cellular respiration - glycolysis and aerobic respiration
glycolysis - a biochemical pathway in which one six-carbon molecule of glucose is
oxidized to produce two three-carbon molecules of pyruvic acid
how photosynthesis and cellular respiration depend on each other - the products of
photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration, and the reactants of photosynthesis are
the products of cellular respiration
anaerobic - does not require the presence of oxygen
aerobic respiration - pyruvic acid is broken down and NADH is used to make lots of ATP
