Cellular Energy and Metabolism starts at 8 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Cellular Energy and Metabolism.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 8
Describe one difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
Describe what happens to the glucose produced in photosynthesis.
Explain what happens during glycolysis.
Explain why animals depend on plants for energy.
Explain why mitochondria are important for both plant and animal cells.
A student runs a race and feels muscle soreness afterward. This is most likely due to the build-up of which substance? (1) Glucose (2) Lactic acid (3) Oxygen (4) Carbon dioxide
A plant is placed in a sealed container with only carbon dioxide and water. After several hours in sunlight, what changes would you expect in the levels of oxygen and glucose inside the container? Explain your reasoning.
A yeast cell is placed in an environment without oxygen. Predict which metabolic process it will use to obtain energy and name one product of this process.
A student runs a race and feels muscle soreness afterward. This is most likely due to the build-up of which substance? (1) Glucose (2) Lactic acid (3) Oxygen (4) Carbon dioxide
