What do chloroplasts convert?
Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis - which involves the conversion of the energy from sunlight (as well as CO2 and water) into organic material (glucose) and O2.
What substance does glycolysis break down?
Glucose, of course.
How many molecules of CO2 are in a single glucose molecule?
Glycolysis itself does not output CO2. Just after glycolysis the 2 pyruvates which are derived from the glucose molecule during glycolysis, are converted into 2 acetyl CoA in the process of which one CO2 per pyruvate is released.After that the 2 acetyl CoA's enter the Kerbs cycle and a further 2 CO2's are produced for each.In total 6 CO2's are created after glycolysis2 during the conversion of pyruvates to Acetyl CoA4 Durint the TCA/ Citric Acid/ Kerbs Cycle
Do chloroplast take in CO2?
Yes they take up CO2. Then it is reduced to glucose
What does photosynthesis convert h2o and co2 into?
photosynthesis: 6 CO2 + 6H20 ----> 6O2 + C6H12O6 Produces glucose
What is a result of glycolysis A conversion of fad to fadh2 B production of CO2 C conversion of glucose to two three carbon compounds D a net loss of two atps per glucose molecu?
C conversion of glucose to two three carbon compounds
What does glucose occur in?
Photosynthesis, a plant takes in light energy and CO2 and makesglucose. or when food gets broken down then ccellular respiration breaks down glucose.
What do chloroplasts convert?
Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis - which involves the conversion of the energy from sunlight (as well as CO2 and water) into organic material (glucose) and O2.
Is making glucose from CO2 photosynthesis or respiration?
The making of glucose from CO2 using sunlight is called photosynthesis. The breaking down of glucose and release of CO2 is respiration.
What substance does glycolysis break down?
Glucose, of course.
What two substances are needed for respiration to take place?
The oxygen in the uvula first combines with the red blood cells and the co2 combines with the whit blood cells
What is the prossess of making food from sunlight?
It is called photosynthesis. It is the CO2 reduction into glucose

What type of organism whose occur in photosynthesis?
Autotrophs. Plants and algae's as well as phytoplankton which are able to convert sunlight and CO2 to glucose energy by mechanism of the chloroplast.
What is a coupled reaction using as an example the conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate?
A coupled reaction is two reactions that occur together. One reaction is necessary for the other to occur.The conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate is a good example. The first step that the cell takes in glycolysis (the beginning of the cellular respiration of glucose) is to convert glucose into glucose-6-phosphate. This phosphorylation requires an energy input, and therefore will not occur spontaneously.In the cell, both the necessary energy and the phosphate group are provided by a molecule of ATP. The free energy released by the conversion of ATP into ADP and a phosphate ion (Pi) is far greater than the energy required for the phosphorylation of glucose, and so, when the two reactions are coupled together, the phosphorylation of glucose goes ahead.To couple these reactions a hexokinase is required. This enzyme needs magnesium as a cofactor.
Do chloroplast take in CO2?
