Abstract

This study aimed to gain an overview of misconceptions on the concept of photosynthesis and respiration. The study involved 58 students from Biology Education at Sriwijaya University. Collecting data used a written test of 16 questions, which are 10 questions of multiple choice and 6 of choice with reason. The results showed that: photosynthesis occurs continuously (37.9%), energy used for photosynthesis are light and heat energy (34.5%), plants take CO2to respiration (47%), plants carry on respiration in the absence of light for photosynthesis (22.4%), respiration in plants occurs only in leaf cells (76.4%), and only animals that take O2 of photosynthesis to respiration (68.9%). The conclusion: 1) on the concept of photosynthesis is still prevailing misconceptions about the concept of the place and time of the occurrence of photosynthesis in plants, the role of the sun in photosynthesis, energy is required in the form of photosynthesis, and the role of photosynthesis for the plant. 2) on the concept of respiration are still prevailing misconceptions about the place of the respiration in plants, gas necessary for the respiration of plants, and the plants perform respiration time, as well as the cycle of CO2 and O2 that occurs in nature.
