What is the point of Respiration?

The point of cellular respiration is to harvest electrons from organic compounds such as glucose and use that energy to make a molecule called ATP


How does photosynthesis and cellular respiration form a cycle?

The two chemical reactions essentially form a cycle, in that the products of one reaction fuel the other. CO2 and H2O released from cellular respiration reenter the atmosphere and are recycled by photosynthetic organisms, which in turn produce the sugars and oxygen needed for respiration to occur once more.

What would happento the cellular respiration process if the enzyme for one step of the process was missing?

If an enzyme in a sequence of enzyme-controlled reactions is missing or defective then the process will stop at that point. So respiration could proceed until it reached the reaction which needed the missing or defective enzyme at which point it would stop.


Do cellular respiration and photosynthesis occur at the same time?

No, cellular respiration and photosynthesis cannot occur in the same cell at the same time because they have opposite requirements. Cellular respiration requires oxygen and glucose to produce energy, while photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen. They are typically balanced out in plants over a day-night cycle.


What happened when you placed Elodea at the light compensation point?

When Elodea is at the light compensation point, the rate of photosynthesis matches the rate of respiration. This means that the amount of oxygen being produced through photosynthesis is equal to the amount being consumed through respiration, resulting in no net change in oxygen levels in the water.

What can be said about the effect of temperature on the cellular respiration of crickets?

Yes. Cellular respiration produces ATP, which crickets need so survive, since it is the main way energy is stored in living things. If crickets could not carry out cellular respiration, they would not be alive.

The main point of photosynthesis is to make?

The main point of photosynthesis is to make Glucose for the plant to use in cellular respiration which will produce ATP for the plant cell to use to power its cellular activities.


What do animals produce at the end of anaerobic respiration?

The whole point of cellular respiration is the production of ATP. If it is anaerobic respiration you end up with 2 ATP molecules, if it is aerobic respiration you end up with 32 Atp molecules. Glycolosis, Krebs cycle, and the Electron transport chain are the three main components of aerobic cellular respiration.


What goes in and comes out of cellular respiration?

The inputs, or reactants are oxygen and high energy sugars, such as sugar. After respiration, carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (energy) is produced. trust point please =D

Which is easier to use as an energy source ATP or glucose?

The whole point of cellular respiration is to harness energy from the original source, glucose, and transform it into a usable and stable source, ATP.


What is the point in cellular respiration where pyruvic acid breaks down to oxygen and water to produce energy?

This is the Krebs Cycle and the Electron Transport Chain. More specifically the Krebs Cycle.
