Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 6.72 Cellular Respiration Basics skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A class debate asks whether cellular respiration mainly concerns matter, energy, or both. Which answer is best?
Amatter only, because energy is not involved
Benergy only, because no substances change
Cneither, because respiration is just breathing
Dboth, because cells rearrange matter and release stored chemical energy from glucose
Solution & Explanation:Cellular respiration involves matter changing into new substances and energy being released from glucose.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Which teaching model would be best for explaining cellular respiration basics to a younger student?
ATeaching Model A
BTeaching Model B
CTeaching Model C
DTeaching Model D
Solution & Explanation:Teaching Model C is best because it is simple, accurate, and clearly shows glucose and oxygen going in, carbon dioxide and water coming out, and energy being released for cell work.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
In a sealed classroom investigation, students place equal masses of living worms in one container and plastic beads in another. Why is the beads container useful?
AIt adds extra oxygen to the worms.
BIt acts as a nonliving comparison to show gas changes are caused by the living worms' respiration.
CIt helps the worms photosynthesize.
DIt is used to create energy in the container.
Solution & Explanation:A nonliving comparison helps show that gas changes are due to respiration by the worms, not the container itself.
