    lives: cellular respiration. One major difference between all eukaryotic organism and plants is the plant’s ability to produce their own food through the process of photosynthesis. While cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of all eukaryotes, plant’s photosynthesis occurs in the membrane bound chloroplasts, which are abundant inside the cell. Although both cellular respiration and photosynthesis share some similarities, it is important to note that photosynthesis, unlike cellular…

    Why are respiration and photosynthesis cycle important. Photosynthesis and respiration cellular are the two main processes perform by most living organisms obtain energy from nature. They have an very important relationship went it comes to life survive. Photosynthesis help process plant cells to convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy while creating energy-rich carbohydrate molecules into glucose, while respiration cellular break down food molecules to obtain energy and store it…

    There are key differences between cellular respiration and photosynthesis that can help one learn about each process on a deeper level. Cellular respiration’s goal is to break down certain food molecules like sugars, fats, and carbohydrates and convert it to ATP or energy for the cell to use. For photosynthesis, its purpose is to obtain solar energy and convert that energy into chemical energy and glucose for food and an energy storage. Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria, which is…

    variety A 22 C (2.4-0)/ (60-0) = .04 test variety A 8 C (.45-0)/ (60-0) = .0075 b. Metabolism is the breakdown of foods to provide energy for the body. Breaking down the foods use cellular respiration which requires glucose and oxygen and produces carbon dioxide. The faster the metabolism, the more cellular respiration will occur which causes an increase in oxygen to be consumed. The effect of temperature will cause an increase on metabolic rate till a certain point where then the cell will…

    generated by plants in a process called photosynthesis. We eat food and breathe in oxygen. The larger food molecules become subunits (such as glucose) in a chemical reaction called breakdown. Finally, our bodies use oxygen and glucose in the cellular respiration process to generate energy for our cells. Photosynthesis is the process in which plants get energy from the sun to transform water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose sugars. Almost all the oxygen we breathe comes from green…

    dioxide and water light energy into a six-carbon simple sugar, and also produces oxygen. While cellular respiration uses the oxygen and sugars to release chemical energy for the cells to use, and also produces water and carbon dioxide. 2. The rate at which photosynthesis occurs needs to be higher because photosynthesis creates building blocks for growth. (six-carbon simple sugars) Cellular respiration is also needed for the growth, but first it needs to break down the simple sugars to create…

    Cellular Respiration in Seeds Cellular respiration is a chemical process the generated energy. In this experiment, seeds were tested to collect data relating to the cellular respiration process. In order for these seeds to start the cellular respiration process they need moisture or they need to be germinated. The purpose of the experiment is to test the CO2 and O2 levels given off by germinated seeds going through cellular respiration. However certain abiotic features can impact the cellular…

    amino acids, glycogen, and triglycerides. Glucose will move into most cells via facilitated diffusion through glucose transporters (GLUT) and becomes phosphorylated to glucose 6-phosphate. The process is stimulated by insulin in muscle cells. Cellular respiration occurs, which is the oxidation of glucose to CO2 and H20, involving glycoses, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. Glycolysis occurs to form pyruvic acid. When oxygen is in short supply, such as in aerobic conditions,…

    This lab is based on measuring cellular respiration and fermentation. Cellular respiration can be expresses to as a method of breaking down organic molecules to release their stored energy. (Upadhyaya, 2017). Throughout cellular respiration there are two main phases which are glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Glycolysis produces two 3-carbon molecules of pyruvate and 2 molecules of ATP. In the citric acid cycle pyruvate loses one of its three carbons and then becomes attached to coenzyme A…
