Mitochondria is the only pleiomorphic cell organelle means it can change its shape. It not only change its shape but also can change its enfoldings i.e. cristae. Cristae bears alollypop like structures called Oxysomes or F1 particles. Oxysome is the site of oxidative phosphorylation. Hence, rate of ATP formation is directly proportional number of oxysomes altimately to mitochondrial inner folds. This change is very significant and necessary during active respiration.

What are five processes or products in which either respiration or photosynthesis is controlled and used to benefit mankind?

1. In a controlled photosynthesis pond algae can be used to break down organic wastes. 2. Cultivating algae to produce biofuel. 3. Carbon dioxide mitigation through controlled photosynthesis. 4. Surgery for the treatment of gas gangrene is performed under conditions of hyperbaric oxygen because the organisms causing it are anaerobic. Antibiotics and oxygen combine to kill them more effectively than antibiotics alone because they live only in the absence of oxygen. 5. Polymixins are antibiotics that work by inhibiting bacterial respiration. 6. Other classes of drugs work by uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation in aerobic bacteria.


How do living organisms gain and use mass through the processes of photosynthesis and respiration?

Photosynthesis takes in carbon dioxide and releases oxygen. Respiration is the use of the carbon gleaned from photosynthesis. These processes are necessary for plant growth and survival and also benefit the environment.


What life processes requires specialized cells in multicellular organisms?

All of them actually, especially if we're talking about a complex organism such as an animal or advanced plant. Tissues (specialized cells organized in a group) perform specific functions for the benefit of the entire organism, so you need tissues for every metabolic funtion to sustain life and assure reproduction. This means digestion, respiration, circulation, endocrine, reproduction, integumentary systems, skeletal (in advanced animals) and anything else I may have forgotten!

How does science benefit living things?

Well, if you would like to become a scientist when you grow up (or whatever), it will benefit you. But if you don't, well, then I say, it doesn't benefit you at all. :)

How does man benefit from photosynthesis in plants?

humans benefit from photosynthesis, by receiving, obviously oxygen, which is required for cellular respiration, but plants also provide, glucose, which we heterotrophs need, to perform cellular respiration again, so we benefit by receiving oxygen and glucose, or O2 and C6H12O6.
