Lactose is made up of glucose and galactose. They are two mono-sugars or monosaccharides. Lactase is the enzyme present in the brush border of your intestine. It breaks up the lactose into mono-sugars and then absorbs the same.
6C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 34ATP The equation shown above is the chemical equation of aerobic cellular respiration. It takes in a complex sugar, glucose, and breaks it down in order to harvest its stored up energy.
Volvox protists capture energy through photosynthesis, using sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugars. These organisms release energy by breaking down these sugars through cellular respiration, which involves the conversion of sugars into ATP, the cell's main energy currency.

Mitochondria gets energy from glucose through the process of Cellular Respiration.The process by which ATP is manufactured from glucose is called cellular respiration.
Yes, the two are opposites of each other. Photosynthesis builds up complex sugars that have a lot of stored energy while cellular respiration breaks down these sugars, release the energy and store it in the form of ATP. The products and wastes of one process end up as the reactants for the other process.
The opposite of photosynthesis is cellular respiration. Photosynthesis stores up energy in the form of complex sugars while cellular respiration breaks down these sugars in order to harvest their energy. The fact that they are opposites are reflected in their chemical equations, as shown below. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy --> 6C6H12O6 + 6O2 Cellular respiration: 6C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 34ATP
Both occur after the process of glycolysis, or the process of "splitting sugars," in cellular respiration. So both can release chemical energy from sugars. Also, both processes end up producing adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a nucleotide considered to be the universal source of energy for metabolism among all living organisms.
Cellular respiration breaks up sugars into a form that the cell can use as energy. The equation for cellular respiration is C6H12O6 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O + Energy (as ATP) or Glucose + Oxygen --> Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy (as ATP).

cellular respiration
Respiration links up the simple sugar, glucosewith the gas, oxygen.
Cellular respiration is what cells do to break up sugars into a form that the cell can use as energy. This happens in all forms of life. Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create ATP, a chemical which the cell uses for energy. Regular cellular respiration is aerobic (requires oxygen), but some simple organisms can only do anaerobic cellular respiration.The simplified formula for aerobic cellular respiration isC6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy (as ATP)The word equation for this is:Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy (as ATP)
