Title: Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
Post by: susan on May 23, 2012, 11:04:09 pm

Okay so what's the easiest way to understand the concepts of photosynthesis and cellular respiration and a good way to remember all the inputs and outputs etc?!

Check out animations

etc. For inputs of calvin cycle i just remember that it requires the ATP, NADPH from the previous step (light- dependent reactions) to do the process.

Np, just google whatever like glycolysis mcgraw hill and they come up. It's cool because it has a mini test at the end of the animation too
