1. Which model best characterizes the genetic information in cells during
fertilization and mitosis?
2. The following equation represents the overall reaction that occurs during
photosynthesis.
carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen
Which of the following best describes how photosynthesis results in a net
storage of chemical potential energy?
→The energy used to break the bonds in carbon dioxide and water is more than the
energy released during the formation of bonds in glucose and oxygen.
3. Which diagram most accurately summarizes the process of photosynthesis?
Biology 1
4. Producers in an ecosystem generally use photosynthesis to make their own food.
Which of the following best describe impacts of photosynthesis on producers
and the environment?
→Light energy is converted into chemical energy, which can be used by the producer.
→Carbon dioxide is used to make glucose, which is stored in the producer.
5. Which of the following steps occurs in the light-dependent reactions of
photosynthesis but not in the light-independent reactions?
→ Chlorophylls absorb light energy, which eventually breaks the bonds of water
molecules.
6. The process of photosynthesis can be summarized by the following equation:
Which of the following best describes how photosynthesis results in a net
storage of chemical potential energy?
The energy used to break the bonds in the reactants is more than the energy released
during the formation of bonds in the products.

7. Which diagram most accurately summarizes the process of photosynthesis?
8. Producers in an ecosystem generally use photosynthesis to make their own food.
Which of the following best describe impacts of photosynthesis on producers
and the environment?
Oxygen is produced and released into the atmosphere.
→Carbon dioxide is converted into organic molecules which are stored in the producer.
9. Which of the following steps occurs in the light-independent reactions of
photosynthesis but not in the light-dependent reactions?
→ATP and NADPH are used to fix inorganic carbon.
10. The process of photosynthesis can be summarized by the following equation:
Which of the following best describes how photosynthesis results in a net
storage of chemical potential energy?
Biology 3
The energy released during the formation of bonds in the products is less than the
energy required to break the bonds in the reactants.
11. Which diagram most accurately summarizes the process of photosynthesis?
12.
Producers in an ecosystem generally use photosynthesis to make their own food.
Which of the following best describe impacts of photosynthesis on producers
and the environment?
→Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere and converted into organic
molecules.
→Sugar molecules made using water and carbon dioxide are stored in the producer.
