What else can I help you with?
Why is the process that occurs in the motohomdria considered to be the opposite of the process that occurs in the chloroplasts?
Mitochondria= respiration-energy+o2 Chloroplasts=photosynthesis-food - energy
What chemical process may be described as the opposite of respiration?
Photosynthesis is considered as the opposite of respiration.
Why are there no chloroplasts in the animal cell?
because chloroplasts are used in the process of photosynthesis and animals do not go through the process of photosynthesis
Why is the process that takes place in a mitochandrian often described as being the opposite of the process that takes place in a chloroplast?
I'm not sure if it's accurate to say that the process that takes place in the mitochondria is in fact the opposite of what takes place in the chloroplast. Rather, I would say that the biochemical process of cellular respiration (which partially takes place in the mitochondria) is the opposite of the biochemical process of photosynthesis (which does take place in the chloroplast). In cellular respiration, oxygen is used to breakdown carbohydrates for energy and carbon dioxide is released as a byproduct. In photosynthesis the energy of sunlight is absorbed by the synthesis of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen is released as a byproduct. Thus cellular respiration and photosynthesis can be described as opposite processes. However, the process of cellular respiration does not occur exclusively in the mitochondria but occurs in part in the cytoplasm, so I think it's more accurate to say that cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis than mitochondria have the opposite function of chloroplasts.
What does a chloroplasts of a cell do?
Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. They are only found in plant cells and some protists. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Every greenplant you see is working to convert the energy of the sun into sugars. Plants are the basis of all life on Earth. They create sugars, and the byproduct of that process is the oxygen that we breathe. That process happens in the chloroplast. Mitochondria work in the opposite direction and break down the sugars and nutrients that the cell receives.
Where did chloroplasts originate from?
Chloroplasts are believed to have originated from ancient cyanobacteria through a process called endosymbiosis.
Is chlorophyll found in chloroplasts?
Yes, chlorophyll is found in chloroplasts. It is a green pigment that plays a key role in photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy. Chloroplasts are organelles within plant cells where photosynthesis takes place, and chlorophyll is located in the thylakoid membranes within chloroplasts.
What is the name of the process that occurs inside the chloroplasts?
The process that occurs inside the chloroplasts is called photosynthesis. This process involves converting light energy into chemical energy by utilizing water and carbon dioxide to produce glucose and oxygen.
Where are the catalysts for the photosynthetic process found?
chloroplasts
What chemical process is associated with chloroplasts?
endosymbiosis
What process occur in the chloroplasts of the plant?
photosynthesis
What is the process takes places in side chloroplasts?
That process is the photosynthesis. It is the food producing process.
