What are three similarities and three differences between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
the similarities between cellular respiration and photosynthesis is that they both follow the same basic pattern.
The only differences are that photosynthesis gets the energy from sunlight, consumes carbondioxide, and produces oxygen, while cellular respiration consumes oxygen and water, and produces carbon dioxide and water.
List two ways in which chloroplast are adapted for photosynthesis to take place?
Chloroplasts are disc-shaped to provide a large surface area to absorb light. They are also located close to the surface of the leaf to capture maximum light, located near to veins for easy water diffusion and are small in size to enable them be packed in a small space.
What are made in light reactions in photosynthisess?
ATP (adenine triphosphate) and NADPH + hydrogen ion (H+) (NADPH2 for short). That's just the basics.
What are the substances used Calvin cycle?
The Reactants for the Light-Independent Cycle(Calvin Cycle) are ATP, CO2, and NADPH
Do plants make their own food from simple raw materials such as carbon dioxide and water?
Yes, plants take in CO2 and using energy from sunlight, change it to glucose (C6H1206) and O2
Name two ways you can slow down or stop photosynthesis?
keep the plant in the dark so it has loss of light therefore the it will die keep it in the dark therefore it cant produce food glucose etc loss of the light can also kill the plant.
How are the equations for photosyntheis and cellular respiration related?
The equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related in that they are essentially reverse processes of each other. In photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. In cellular respiration, organisms break down glucose and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy. Essentially, the outputs of one process are the inputs of the other.
What are two other names for the Dark Cycle in photosynthesis?
The Dark Cycle in photosynthesis is also known as the Calvin Cycle and the light-independent reactions. These processes occur in the chloroplasts of plant cells, where carbon dioxide is fixed into glucose using energy stored from the light-dependent reactions.
Which part of brown algae is most important in photosynthesis?
Most macroalgae (multicellular algae) are made up of three parts. The blade is a leaf-like structure that captures light and carries on photosynthesis. The stipe is the stem of the algae. The holdfast is the anchor for the algae; it holds the algae to a solid surface such as a rock or pier. Although the holdfast may look like roots, it does not function to get nutrients or water. Some algae may have a fourth structure, the pneumatocyst; this structure is an air bladder on the stipe or blade that functions to keep the algae afloat in the water column.
What is the correct summary of the Calvin Cycle?
It uses the energy that ATP and NADPH contain to build high energy compounds.
It uses ATP and NADPH from light-dependent reactions to produce high energy sugars.
Are Plants the only photosynthetic organisms?
No, there are some photosynthetic protists and some photosynthetic bacteria.
What raw material is responsible for the release of molecular oxygen in photosynthesis?
Water (H2O) is the source of the molecular oxygen.
What is common in the nitrogen cycle with the photosynthesis cycle?
It is the o2 gas. it is the by product of photosynthesis.
What does photosynthesis turns into?
photosynthesis turns water into glucose, along with using carbon dioxide which provides the plant with food.
Why is photosynthesis considered an endergonic reaction in an isolated plant?
Photosynthesis is considered an endergonic reaction because it requires energy input from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process is endergonic because it absorbs energy rather than releasing it. In an isolated plant, the plant must obtain this energy from sunlight to drive the photosynthetic reaction.
What are light dependent and light independent reactions in photosynthesis?
2atp and nadph are moved i think, not too sure thoughh you may double check because i don't feel like iit
What is light converted into during photosynthesis?
Light doesn't become energy, energy becomes light. When electrons in atoms absorb energy from electricity in our light bulbs or nuclear fusion in the sun, or even during some chemical reactions, like fire, they jump to higher energy levels. Thing is though, they don't stay there. WHen they jump back to their original energy level, they will release a photon of electromagnetic radiation. (sometimes light) Now, that light can be converted into different forms of energy. Mostly heat like when the Earth absorbes light from the Sun and stores it in the oceans as heat. Also it can be converted into electricity when photons of light bump electrons in photovoltaic material out of their orbitals and make them flow through a wire. That is what electricity is, a flow of electrons in a wire. If your question is really how does light become electricity, GOOGLE photovoltaic cells and that will explain it more clearly. By the way, the effect you read about is what Albert Einstein won a Nobel Prize for and it has helped defined the dual nature of light ever since. There is one other way light becomes energy. Plabts store the energy from the Sun in molecules of starches and sugars made of water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) using sunlight to reaarange the atoms in a chemical reaction. These starches and sugars can then be eaten by other organisms, mainly animals, to give them the energy they need to live. GOOGLE Photosynthesis and Respiration to see how this all works. REMEMBER THIS!!!!! Law of conservation of energy tells us that energy cannot be created or destroyed. All the energy in the universe has always been here and will always be here as long as the universe exists. Thing about energy is that it can be converted into different forms, like light into heat, but it can't be created or destroyed; only converted.
Will food coloring change the color of potted plants?
No, food coloring will not change the color of potted plants. Plants get their color from pigments produced in their cells, and adding food coloring to the soil will not affect the plant's natural coloration.
Where is the kinetic energy in photosynthesis?
ok...well, the answer is simple yet complicated... the sun sends down photonic radiation, when it shines on the earth. the photonic radiation [light and heat from the sun] then hits the leaf. the moving of the photons is one form of kenetic energy. the clorophyyl in the leaf's cells then work like solar panels. it gets heated by the sun's photonic radiation and UV radiation, and it is converted into ,well, Oxygen, water, and some type of sugar. the clorophyyl does this by bringing in CO2 [carbon dioxide] from the atmosphere. then, the CO2 is compounded with water, and forms sugar, extra water, and oxegen. the excess water and oxygen is "squirted" outside, while the sugar is converted into energy inside the cell, or stored. the bringing in of CO2 and expelling O2 is the kenetic energy.
What colors of light are primarily not absorbed by chlorophyll?
Plants use the red and blue light from the visible light spectrum; these are captured in the wavelengths between 440 and 660 nanometres. Green light is reflected, giving plants their green colour. Day length also plays an important factor in the effectiveness of photosynthesis.
Since red is the most abundant colour in visible light, then it could be referred to as the "most useful" since it is the one used most.
Bear in mind that photosynthesis is not the only process involving plants and light, since insect pollinated flowering plants (angiosperms) use bright colours to attract insects and other animals, in which case, light is required in many forms, not only visible, but some ultraviolet, since several insects see by means of ultraviolet light.
