What else can I help you with?
Are photosynthesis and cellular respiration the two main processes that make up the nitrogen cycle?
carbon cycle
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.
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.
What came first in evolution cellular respiration or photosynthesis?
Cellular respiration likely evolved before photosynthesis. Early prokaryotic organisms likely developed cellular respiration to generate energy from organic molecules. Photosynthesis evolved later in some prokaryotic organisms as a way to use sunlight to make energy.
How are cellular respiration and photosynthesis complementary processes?
Photosynthesis uses light energy to make ATP from carbon dioxide and water while cellular respiration makes carbon dioxide while using glucose to make ATP. The CO2 is used by the plants while animals make CO2.
How do processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration relate to each other?
Photosynthesis make glucose molecules and store energy. Respiration break up and release energy
The main point of photosynthesis is to make?
The main point of photosynthesis is to make Glucose for the plant to use in cellular respiration which will produce ATP for the plant cell to use to power its cellular activities.
What are photosynthesis and respiration components of?
Mitochondria are needed for cellular respiration however photosynthesis uses chloroplasts. Photosynthesis uses sunlight (chloroplasts) + CO2 and water to make glucose and O2. The mitochondria use the O2 and glucose to make ATP and heat plus CO2 and water.
What is misleading about the following statement Plants perform photosynthesis and animals perform cellular respiration?
The statement is misleading because both plants and animals perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Plants perform photosynthesis to produce energy, while animals perform cellular respiration to break down energy-rich molecules and release energy.
Does the nitrogen cycle involve photosyethis and respiration?
No. Nitrogen is required to make proteins (which DO the photosynthesis & the respiration), but is not classed as part of the cycles.
How do respiration and photosynthesis work together in plants to provide the energy needed for life and growth?
During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water (CO2+H20) us the sun's energy to produce oxygen and glucose. Cellular Respiration involves using oxygen and glucose to make carbon dioxide water and ATP. They are constantly working together even if you don't realize it. :)
How are photsynthesis and cellular respiration opposite in terms of oxygen?
In photosynthesis, you're essentially taking CO2 and energy to make oxygen. In cellular respiration, you're taking oxygen to form CO2 and energy.
