The short answer is yes. These processes are both performed by photosynthetic plants. However, they perform opposite functions. While photosynthesis carbon dioxide and water create glucose and oxygen, in respiration, glucose and oxygen produce carbon dioxide and water.

What are photosynthesis and cellular respiration performed by?

Chloroplasts and mitochondria respectively


Which function would be performed durning respiration in a plant but not in a human?

The process of photosynthesis occurs in plants during respiration, involving the conversion of light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose. This function is not performed in humans since we are unable to carry out photosynthesis like plants.


Which organisms carry out respiration growth movement and excretion?

Various organisms carry out these functions: bacteria carry out respiration, plants and algae perform growth through photosynthesis, animals exhibit movement as they respond to stimuli, and excretion is performed by all organisms in removing waste products.


How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related(apex)?

Thus, during photosynthesis a plant consumes water, carbon dioxide, and light energy, and produces glucose and oxygen. The sugar glucose is important because it is necessary for cellular respiration.

Humans carry cellular respiration and photosynthesis?

Humans carry out cellular respiration to generate ATP for energy production. Photosynthesis is a process performed by plants, algae, and some bacteria to convert sunlight into energy. Humans cannot perform photosynthesis as we lack the necessary organelles, such as chloroplasts.


Why is photosynthesis important for respiration?

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the processes by which plant and animal cells produce energy, allowing them to function and stay alive.


Do bobcats go through photosynthesis?

No, bobcats do not go through photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a process performed by plants and some other organisms that convert sunlight into energy. Bobcats, as mammals, obtain energy by consuming other organisms, such as smaller mammals, birds, and reptiles.


What is the process that photoautotrophic producers perform that is not performed by other organisms in most ecosystem's?

Autotrophs, which are plants and such, use a process called Photosynthesis to gain energy. Photosynthesis is a two-phase anabolic pathway in which the Sun's light energy is converted to chemical energy for use by the cell.


Is phtosynethesis a important role of fungi in the ecosystem?

Actually, no. Organisms in the kingdom Plantae do not contain chlorophyll and do not undergo photosynthesis. Only organsims in kingdom Plantae undergo photosynthesis. Organisms in kingdom Fungi are typically parasitic and live on other organisms.


What is cellular respiration performed by?

Cellular respiration is performed by the mitochondria of a cell. It involves a series of complex biochemical reactions that convert glucose and oxygen into energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for the cell to use.


How do the process s of photosynthesis and cellular respiration relate to one another?

Energy produced in photosynthesis is put into usable form through cellular respiration. They are both ways cells gain energy. In photosynthesis, cells use solar energy to produce glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water. In cellular respiration, cells make ATP (which is used as energy by the cells) and consume oxygen during the conversion of glucose to carbon dioxide and water.
