Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Project
Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Project Purpose: Students will be able to describe photosynthesis and cellular respiration and explain how they are related.
Schedule:
2/17/15: Introduction to project and start working
2/19/15: Work on project entire period
2/24/15: Work on project entire period
2/26/15: Work on project entire period
3/3/15: Present Project to class
Power Point:
Describe the process of photosynthesis. Make sure to include the light-dependent and light-independent (also called Calvin Cycle) parts. Make to also talk about Glucose, ATP, chloroplast, and photosynthesis’s chemical formula.
Describe the process of cellular respiration. Make to talk about the 3 parts of cellular respiration: glycolysis, Krebs cycle (or citric acid cycle), and electron transport chain. Also make sure to talk about ADP, ATP, aerobic processes, anaerobic processes, mitochondria, and chemical formula for cellular respiration.
Explain how photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related. They are very closely related and work together in cyclical fashion. So make sure you do a good job of showing how they are related and how they create a cycle.
Details of Project:
You may do this in groups of 2-3.
I will grade the projects on how well describe both processes and their relationship.
Everyone in the group has to present.
