Photosynthesis and Respiration
Select and complete one of the following assignments:
Option 1: Photosynthesis and Respiration Scenario Summary
Option 2: Steps of Photosynthesis and Respriation Paper
Option 1: Photosynthesis and Respiration Scenario Summary
Scenario: Imagine that you are a molecule of carbon dioxide that has just been “captured” by a leaf as part of a tree’s photosynthesis and respiration processes.
Write a 700- to 1,050-word summary describing your journey through the plant’s process of photosynthesis and respiration. Your journey should include five destinations (or stages), plus a final destination (or outcome) and the following points:
· Describe the parts of the plant that you encounter and how you are modified at each stage.
· Describe the other molecules and entities that you meet along the way at each of the five main stages. Explain the effect that you have on these molecules and/or the effect that they have on you.
· Conclude your journey using two word formulas; one for photosynthesis and one for respiration.
· Summarize what happened to you at the end of this five stage journey.
Option 2: Steps of Photosynthesis and Respiration Paper
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper summarizing the steps of photosynthesis and cellular respiration and explain the relationship between the two. Include the following in your paper:
· For photosynthesis, include a summary of the steps in:
o The Light Dependent Reaction
o The Calvin Cycle (Light Independent Reaction)
· For cellular respiration, include a summary of the steps in:
o Glycolysis
o Krebs Citric Acid Cycle
o The Electron Transport Chain
· Describe the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Include the following points:
o Write a word formula for photosynthesis.
o Write a word formula for cellular respiration.
o In one or two sentences, describe the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration? Include the roles of carbon dioxide and oxygen in your response.
o In two to three sentences, discuss whether forests absorb or release carbon dioxide? Use your word formulas as the basis for your explanation.
