PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND
CELLULAR RESPIRATION
I can identify and use
the the reactants and
the products to
explain the process of
both photosynthesis
and cellular
respiration
Who? What? When?
Where? And Why?
Who:
Plants
What:
Photosynthesis, uses reactants from the environment
1. Sunlight
2. CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
3. H2O (Water)
When:
Collects the suns light when it is out.
Where:
Chloroplasts - Organelles found only in plant cells that carry
out photosynthesis.
Why:
To produce:
1. C6H12O6 ( Glucose, Sugar, Food)
2. O2 (Oxygen)
Who? What? When?
Where? And Why?
Who:
Animals
What:
Cellular Respiration, uses reactants from the environment
1. Glucose (Food)
2. Oxygen
When:
Constantly, collects oxygen.
Where:
Mitochondria - Organelles found in plant and animal cells
that carry out cellular respiration.
Why:
To produce:
1. ATP (Energy)
2. Water (Waste)
3. Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Lesson Summary
Photosynthesis and cellular
respiration are related. How?
Photosynthesis occurs in the
chloroplast of plant cells.
Cellular respiration occurs in the
mitochondria of plant and animal
cells.
Whenever you see an arrow in our
equations, think produces.
Reactants produce products.
Remember, what one produces the
other one needs. It is a constant
cycle.
