Plants do photosynthesis only and animals do cellular respiration only?

Well plants are autotrophs, so photosynthesis is how they eat, because it is obviously visible plants do not have mouths. We don't need photosynthesis because we eat food like twinkies and meat to get our energy. Respiration is something every eukaryote (plant/animal/fungi/protist) needs to do.

What is misleading about the following statement Plants perform photosynthesis and animals perform cellular respiration?
This statement implies that plants do not undergo cellular respiration. Plants do, however, undergo cellular respiration because their cells have mitochondria. It is the only process for plants to break down the food they make and release the energy.
Do plants cells or animal cells carry out cellular respiration?
Yes. Plants and animals need energy. Energy must therefore be made in the cells.No, only animal cells carry on cellular respiration.animal cells carryon cellular respiration. plant cells carry out photosynthesis which is the opposite of respiration.
How is photosynthesis an cellular respiration different?
photosynthesis is only happening in plants. But respiration is happening in animal cells too.
Does cellular respiration occur in plants or animals?
Cellular respiration occurs in both plants and animals. The general equation for this is; glucose + oxygen --> Carbon dioxide + Water When oxygen is not available anaerobic respiration takes place, which is different for both plants and animals.
How do organisms get glucose in cellular respiration?
We get our glucose from plants or other animals that have eaten plants. And cellular respiration produces the reactants for photosynthesis which produces glucose the glucose that our bodies get!
The release of energy in plants and animals from food is called?
The release of energy in plants and animals is called respiration.
What occurs in plants and animals?
Cellular respiration happens in both. Photosynthesis happens in plants only.
Does photosynthesis or cellular respiration only occur in plants?
i Know that photosynthesis only occurs in plants but i don't know about cellular respiration.
In which process is energy stored in the form of glucose?
The process' (2) in which energy is stored in the form of glucose are photosynthesis and also cellular respiration. Photosynthesis takes place in plants and cellular respiration in both plants and animals.
What are the main similarities between cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
The main similarities between cellular respiration and photosynthesis is that they are both processes in which a cell produces glucose or energy. Both are used in your everyday environment. One difference is that photosynthesis happens in plants and cellular respiration in both plants and animals.
What are the inputsoutputs of a cell?
Cellular Respiration Relationship In plants, plants use the outputs of photosynthesis (sugar, oxygen) as the inputs of cellular respiration. They then use the outputs of cellular respiration as the inputs of photosynthesis. It is a cycle.
Does respiration occur in plant or animal?
In both. In plants they use photosynthesis during the day and at night they use cellular respiration because there is no sun to produce the energy needed with photosynthesis. In animals they only use cellular respiration.
What is misleading about the following statement Plants perform photosynthesis and animals perform cellular respiration?
This statement implies that plants do not undergo cellular respiration. Plants do, however, undergo cellular respiration because their cells have mitochondria. It is the only process for plants to break down the food they make and release the energy.
What is oxegyn?
Oxygen is a produced as a product of photosynthesis, and later used by both animals and plants for cellular respiration.
Which process brings energy to the biosphere?
Respiration supplies energy for organisms on Earth. Respiration can either be photosynthesis in plants and fungi or cellular respiration in animals.
Do plants cells or animal cells carry out cellular respiration?
Yes. Plants and animals need energy. Energy must therefore be made in the cells.No, only animal cells carry on cellular respiration.animal cells carryon cellular respiration. plant cells carry out photosynthesis which is the opposite of respiration.
Animals help keep the gases in the atmosphere in balance by?
Plants and animals help to maintain a balance of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by cellular respiration and photosynthesis. Photosynthesis releases oxygen and cellular respiration releases carbon dioxide.
