Label the following diagram (this is a diagram showing cellular respiration).

Answer/Explanation

This diagram shows the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration

a - chloroplast - you can identify the chloroplast because of the green colour and stacks of disk-shaped structures. This is the site of photosynthesis

b - stroma - the matrix inside the chloroplasts (the space inside the membranes where the grana are found)

c - granum (plural grana) - a stack of thylakoids

d - thylakoids - the disk-shaped structures where light reactions take place inside the chloroplast

e - glucose - the solid product of photosynthesis reactions is glucose - the food source of the plant

f - oxygen - the gas released by photosynthesis is oxygen, which is required for respiration

g - mitochondria- the organelle where cellular respiration takes place is the mitochondria, the energy-producing organelles.

h - intermembrane space - the mitochondria is a double-membrane bound organelle. The space between the inner and outer membrane is called the intermembrane space. The inner membrane creates cristae (folds) which surround the matrix.

i -  cristae - the inner membrane of the mitochondria creates folds, called cristae which surround the matrix.

j - matrix - the matrix of the mitochondria is a gel-like substance found inside

k - ATP - the reactions of cellular respiration produce ATP, which acts as the cell's energy currency

l - carbon dioxide - cellular respiration releases carbon dioxide gas, which is used in photosynthesis.

m - water- cellular respiration releases water, which is used in photosynthesis

n - sunlight - sunlight is being trapped by the chloroplast to provide energy for photosynthesis
