What else can I help you with?
Why do plant cells need to do cellular respiration if they can make ATP from sunlight?
Plants make ATP through cellular respiration. Photosynthesis, which requires sunlight, does not make ATP - but glucose - which is then converted to ATP by cellular respiration. Therefore plants still need respiration to make ATP.
Why plant cells undergo both photosynthesis and respiration?
Yes. They use photosynthesis to produce sugar from sunlight, and cellular respiration to digest the sugar for energy (ATP).
What process do cells do to create food from sunlight energy?
Cells use cellular respiration. Unless we are talking about plants. Then it is photosynthesis.
Both a whale and a seaweed use what to change glucose into energy?
Through cellular respiration
What are the raw materials equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Photosynthesis CO2 + H2O + Sunlight Cellular respiration O + Glucose Raw materials for these processes.
Do Autotrophs Use Cellular respiration?
Yes, autotrophs use cellular respiration to break down organic molecules and generate energy in the form of ATP. However, autotrophs primarily rely on photosynthesis to produce their own food by converting sunlight into chemical energy.
Does photosynthesis or cellular respiration only occur in plants?
No, both photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in plants as well as in other organisms such as bacteria, fungi, and animals. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight to produce energy, while cellular respiration is the process by which organisms use oxygen to break down glucose and produce ATP for energy.
How is cellular resperation related to photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis uses light water and carbon dioxide to produce glucose. The glucose produced is then used, with oxygen, in cellular respiration to produce ATP. Chemical Equations Photosynthesis 6CO2+6H2O ------> C6H12O6+6O2 Cellular Respiration C6H12O6+6O2 ------> 6CO2+6H2O+38 ATP NOTE *Plants use photosynthesis and cellular respiration. *Animals just use the glucose they obtain from food to perform cellular respiration. *This is the formula for aerobic cellular respiration not anaerobic which doesn't use oxygen and produces lactic acid in humans.
What is the opposite of cellular respiration?
The opposite of cellular respiration (oxidation) would be photosynthesis, the process plants use to create carbohydrates, which contain chemical bonds that can be broken to release energy.
How do cellular respiration and photosynthesis make glucose?
In photosynthesis, plants use energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose. In cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce energy (ATP) that cells can use for various functions. Together, photosynthesis and cellular respiration form a continuous cycle where plants produce glucose through photosynthesis, which is then used in cellular respiration to release energy for cells.
Where in the cell does cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
They use both but under different circumstances. During the day, they use photosynthesis. During the night, since there is no sunlight, they have to use cellular respiration to produce energy.
Cellular respiration involves the use of carbon dioxide or oxygen?
Cellular respiration uses oxygen.
