What is misleading about the following statement Plants perform photosynthesis and animals perform cellular respiration?

The statement is misleading because both plants and animals perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Plants perform photosynthesis to produce energy, while animals perform cellular respiration to break down energy-rich molecules and release energy.


Is it true that plants do not undergo cellular respiration?

No, this is not true, all organisms undergo cellular respiration. Only the green (chlorophyll containing) cells of a plant can perform photosynthesis to build sugars using the energy from sunlight, these cells and other cells in the plant (that can't perform photosynthesis) break down those sugars through respiration to get the energy they need (in the form of ATP) to perform other cellular functions. All photosynthesis is, is a way to capture the energy of the sun, once that energy is captured, the plant releases and uses that energy the same way as any other organism. Cellular Respiration.


Why are photosynthesis and cellular respiration so important to earth?

They are dependent. Photosynthesis relies on respiration and vice versa. Evidence is the two formulas. Photosynthesis: 6CO2+6H2O+Energy = C6H12O6+6O2 CP: C6H12O6+6O2 = 6CO2+6H2O


Can only organisms that breathe perform cellular respiration?

false ,plants need to under go respiration too in order to survive because the glucose created in photosynthesis stores energy and the plant needs to break the chemical bonds of glucose, which cellular respiration does, to get energy


Does cellular respiration occur in all eukaryotic cells?

Yes - all living things undergo cellular respiration (although there are different forms of this).Plants undergo both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Why plant cells undergo both photosynthesis and respiration?

Yes. They use photosynthesis to produce sugar from sunlight, and cellular respiration to digest the sugar for energy (ATP).


What organism undergo photosynthesis and why is photosynthesis important?

Plants, algae, and some bacteria undergo photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is important as it is the process by which these organisms convert sunlight into chemical energy, producing oxygen as a byproduct. This oxygen is vital for the survival of most living organisms on Earth, as it is used in the process of cellular respiration to generate energy.

What cellular organelle is present in organisms that can undergo the process of photosynthesis?

Chloroplasts are the cellular organelles present in organisms that can undergo photosynthesis. They contain chlorophyll pigment that captures light energy to convert into chemical energy in the form of glucose.


Does algae undergo cellular respiration?

Yes, algae undergo cellular respiration to convert the energy stored in organic molecules into usable energy in the form of ATP. This process involves breaking down glucose and other substrates in the presence of oxygen (aerobic respiration) or, in some cases, without oxygen (anaerobic respiration). Algae are photosynthetic organisms, so they also produce glucose through photosynthesis, which they can then utilize during cellular respiration.


Do animals undergo respiration?

Yes they do because they absorb oxygen while organisms that undergo photosynthesis absorb carbon dioxide.

Do rocks undergo respiration?

Rocks do not undergo respiration because they are not living organisms and do not require energy in the form of cellular respiration. Respiration is a metabolic process that occurs in living cells to produce energy. Rocks lack the necessary cellular structures and processes for respiration to take place.


What organelles undergo cellular respiration?

Mitochondria are the organelles where cellular respiration occurs.


How are photosynthesis and aerobic cellular respiration?

Aerobic respiration:C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2Oglucose + oxygen produce carbon dioxide and waterPhotosynthesis:6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2carbon dioxide and water produce glucose and oxygenThe reactants of aerobic respiration are the products of photosynthesis. Organisms that undergo aerobic respiration need the products of photosynthesis to survive (this includes the plants and other photosynthesizing organisms themselves). Plants and other photosynthesizing organisms need the products of aerobic respiration in order to survive.
