What else can I help you with?
What is the oxidation of water equation and how does it relate to the process of photosynthesis?
The oxidation of water equation is 2H2O - 4H 4e- O2. This equation represents the splitting of water molecules into oxygen, protons, and electrons. In the process of photosynthesis, this reaction occurs during the light-dependent reactions in the chloroplasts of plants. The oxygen released is a byproduct of photosynthesis, which is essential for the survival of plants and other organisms that rely on oxygen for respiration.
What gas do plants produce for the atmosphere?
Plants produce an excess of oxygen which is released into the atmosphere. This is a product of photosynthesis.
Is the process of plants making sugar through photosynthesis exothermic or endothermic?
The process of plants making sugar through photosynthesis is endothermic.
What are some examples of chemical transformations?
Examples of chemical transformations include combustion (burning of wood), photosynthesis (conversion of light energy into chemical energy in plants), and the formation of rust on iron (oxidation of iron in the presence of oxygen and water).
Is the process of plants making sugar through photosynthesis considered endothermic or exothermic?
The process of plants making sugar through photosynthesis is considered endothermic.
Does the mitochondrion perform photosynthesis?
No. Photosynthesis occurs in cell organelles termed as the chloroplasts. Mitochondria is the cell organelle where energy is produced by oxidation of molecules such as sugars produced during photosynthesis. Cellular respiration occurs in mitochondrion.
Does plants are able to carry out photosynthesis because they contain the organelle knows as a mitochondrion?
No, plants carry out photosynthesis because they contain chloroplasts, not mitochondria. Chloroplasts are the organelles responsible for photosynthesis, while mitochondria are responsible for cellular respiration.
Do photosynthetic plants have mitochondria and chloroplasts?
Almost all plants have mitochondria. Plants use these mitochondria to release the energy from the glucose that is stored inside them (The glucose is obtained via Photosynthesis).
Are Mitochondria where photosynthesis take place?
No. photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts containing chlorophyll. our cells have mitochondria but not chloroplasts. Therefore, we can't photosynthesize as plants do.
Do plants have mitochondria?
Yes.Plants also need energy.This energy is produced in mitochondria
Does cellular respiration occur in plants that also photosynthesize?
Yes it does as these plants contain mitochondria that put some of the glucose made by photosynthesis into the cellular respiration cycle in the mitochondria.
How can sunlight be used to create energy?
Photosynthesis inside a plants Mitochondria produces energy
Which of these organelles help plants get their energy?
Chloroplasts are the organelles in plants that help them get their energy through the process of photosynthesis.
Which organelles in plants and animals are responsible for energy production?
In plants, energy production occurs in the chloroplasts through the process of photosynthesis. In animals, energy production takes place in the mitochondria through cellular respiration.
Explain Why plants have mitochondria even though they include chloroplasts?
Because they have seperate functions.Chloroplast engage in photosynthesis while mitochondria engage in respiration.
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!
What is the fate of pyruvate in mitochondrial respiration?
Pyruvate is converted into acetyl-CoA in the mitochondrial matrix through the process of pyruvate oxidation. Acetyl-CoA then enters the citric acid cycle to produce reducing equivalents (NADH and FADH2) and ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
