In photosynthesis, oxygen is a gas that is given off by the plant as a by product, which it cannot use. In cellular respiration, oxygen is used to fuel the process, and without it, h20 is not produced and the pyruvic acid will turn into lactic acid in the muscles!
In photosynthesis, oxygen is bonded to two hydrogens which are necessary for the proton gradient. The electrons are also needed to replace the lost electrons that were lost from chlorophyl. The water is split by photosystem II and the oxygen gas is released.
In cell respiration, the oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor. The electrons will not move through the transport chain in the mitochondrion without oxygen at the end. This is because of the electronegativity of oxygen. Without oxygen, cellular respiration would be anerobic and very inefficient. It would only produce 2 ATP. Aerobic respiration (O2 present) yields 36 ATP (though some is used in the process) which shows that it is much more efficient. Without oxygen in respiration, very little energy would be harvested.
NAD stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and FAD stands for flavin adenine dinucleotide. Both are electron carriers which have many roles to perform.
- allow exit of low energy waste material example CO2 which leaves as a low energy metabolic waste of the cellular respiration process. - has numerous proteins and enzymes that play roles in the respiration process - the mitochondrial matrix is a protein rich liquid that fills the innermost space which again plays an important role.
Formation of membranes - phospholipid bilayer Energy store - used in Krebs cycle in respiration Insulation - retains heat
Their sole function is to "burn" hydrogen with oxygen and use the energy to convert ADP into ATP.
The light reactions in photosynthesis occur in the grana and the dark reactions take place in the stroma of the chloroplast without chloroplast , the dark reactions can't occurSONRY_26
cellular respiration helps us and other animals get energy from our food and oxygen and water. photosynthesis lets plants, algae and bacteria get energy from light energy and carbon dioxide
what is the chemical equation for cellular respiration in words
The mitochondria carry out aerobic cellular respiration, and ribosomes carry out protein synthesis.
in photosynthesis carbon dioxide is used with water and light energy from the sun to create glucose (plant food).
what is waters roles in the light reaction of photosynthesis
H2O is necessary from a chemical basis for cellular respiration. It is utilized in the formation of AdrinoTriPhospate which produces energy in the cell. It is a transport mechanism for chemical interactions both to and from the cellular components. And finally it is necessary for thermal regulation.
Breathing...this helps in that the oxgyen produced by plants during the daylight is used by animals in respiration and the carbondoxide produced by the animals is used by the plants for photosynthesis....
The roles of a producer in an ecosystem are : Photosynthesis to happen , grow entirely for the consumers .
the word equation basically explains it: carbon dioxide + water vapour -----> oxygen and glucose in a nutshell, if you take away one of these, a plant cannot photosynthesise
Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions that occur in everyday processes in a cell, such as cellular respiration. Enzymes are also used to break down wastes and old cell parts to be reused or discarded.
NAD stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and FAD stands for flavin adenine dinucleotide. Both are electron carriers which have many roles to perform.
