  • Q3
    What is cellular respiration?
    an endothermic reaction that occurs in the mitochondria to release energy from glucose
    an exothermic reaction that occurs continuously in the cytoplasm of living cells to release energy from glucose

  • Q4
    How does increasing temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis?
    increases the rate of photosynthesis until it gets too high, then enzymes are denatured so the rate of photosynthesis quickly decreases
    increases the rate of photosynthesis until another factor becomes limiting
    decreases the rate of photosynthesis
    increases the rate of photosynthesis
