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

What can perform cellular respiration Which can perform photosynthesis Plant cells animal cells fungal cells?

Animal and fungi are not photosynthetic. So plant is the answer


Why do plants cells have choroplast and animal cell do not have them?

Plant cells have chloroplasts because they undergo photosynthesis, which is the process of converting sunlight into energy. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, which is necessary for capturing sunlight. Animal cells do not undergo photosynthesis; therefore, they do not need chloroplasts.


What types of Cells carry out cellular respiration?

cellular respiration occurs in all living cells. it is the process the cell uses to turn oxygen and glucose into energy. however autotrophes (plant cells) undergo a similar process called photosynthesis the plant can then turn carbon dioxide and water into energy, don't let that fool you though. plant cells still undergo cellular respiration as well.


Why do plant cells have choroplast and animal cells?

Plant cells have chloroplasts because they undergo photosynthesis, a process that converts sunlight into energy. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts because they do not perform photosynthesis; instead, they rely on consuming other organisms for energy.


Chloroplasts are to plants as what are to aerobic respiration?

Mitochondria are to aerobic respiration. Mitochondria are responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells, similar to how chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells.

Why do plant cells undergo both photosynthesis and respiration?

because plant cells are organism that can live through life


Does respiration occur in both plants and animals?

Yes, respiration occurs in both plants and animals. Plants undergo cellular respiration to convert glucose and oxygen into energy, while animals also utilize this process to produce energy by breaking down glucose.


What are the is activity of plant cells in the dark and in the sunlight?

In the dark, plant cells undergo respiration to release energy from stored sugars. In sunlight, plant cells undergo photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of sugars. They also produce oxygen as a byproduct in the presence of sunlight.


Are chloroplast in animal cells?

no. Chloroplasts are only in plant cells. chloroplasts are what makes the plant green.


Do plant cells need photosynthesis?

plant cells need photosynthesis and respiration to create energy for cell work, reproduction, and repairs.


Do all cells of a plant undergo photosynthesis?

No, not all cells in a plant undergo photosynthesis. Photosynthesis primarily occurs in specialized cells called chloroplasts, found mainly in the leaves of plants. Other cells in a plant, such as root cells or stem cells, do not typically undergo photosynthesis.


Do plant cells carry on respiration and photosynthesis?

Yes, plant cells carry out respiration and photosynthesis. During respiration, they generate energy by breaking down glucose to produce ATP, releasing carbon dioxide as a byproduct. In photosynthesis, they convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose, using carbon dioxide and water.


What process does not occur in animal cells?

Animal cells do not undergo photosynthesis. This process is exclusive to plant cells, where they use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Animal cells obtain their energy through processes like cellular respiration, which produce energy from nutrients.


Plant cells use photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

True. Plants need photosynthesis for food production. Respiration is for energy production


Is it true of false that both respiration and photosynthesis take place in some plant cells?

Yes, it is true. Some plant cells are capable of both respiration and photosynthesis. During the day, these cells perform photosynthesis to convert sunlight into energy, and at night, they switch to respiration to produce energy from stored sugars.


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.
