Importance of Photosynthesis and Respiration Explain how photosynthesis and respiration are linked in order to provide you with energy from the food you eat: Photosynthesis is the process in which certain life forms are able to use sunlight to create energy. This energy is created by making carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll. Plants release large amounts of oxygen into the atmosphere as they produce much more than needed during the photosynthesis process.

respiration and photosynthesis are almost exact opposites. Photosynthesis is anabolic; it builds up glucose‚ or sugar‚ from light energy‚ water and carbon dioxide. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy C6H12O6 + 6O2. Cellular respiration‚ on the other hand‚ is catabolic. It breaks down glucose to form carbon dioxide and water. The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + 38 ATP. Cellular respiration and photosynthesis follow the

Energy In A Cell – Respiration & Photosynthesis Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are complementary reactions. In this lab‚ you will review both processes and put the steps of each in order of occurrence. You will gain from this exercise an overall understand of how these processes work hand-in-hand in cellular organisms. You will go to the following website: http://glencoe.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/dl/free/0078757134/383932/BL_25.html After reading the guide‚ you will work to move

Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. This process occurs in plants and some algae (Kingdom Protista). Plants need only light energy‚ CO2‚ and H2O to make sugar. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts‚ specifically using chlorophyll‚ the green pigment involved in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis takes place primarily in plant leaves‚ and little to none occurs in stems‚ etc. The parts of a typical leaf

Have you ever stayed after school and felt very exhausted afterward? If you have‚ then that is would an extended school day would feel like. I don’t agree with adding an extra hour and a half to a school day because staying an extra hour and thirty minutes in school will cause difficulties for lots of parents‚ teachers‚ and students. First and foremost‚ children will start to lose interest in class. Personally‚ I have a short attention span and I would be mentally gone if we had to be in class

However‚ if we try to imagine the possibilities of the extended mind‚ what ideas could potentially come up may be telekinesis‚ mind control‚ or telepathy. If asked whether the ability to move things with your mind equals your mind extending beyond and out into the world‚ majority of us would agree‚ that if we had the ability to control things then our mind really does extend beyond our body. Clark and Chalmers through their essay “The Extended Mind” argues that the mind is

is called photosynthesis. This process is used by plants and other organisms for synthesis of lipids and amino acids or can be metabolized during cellular respiration to produce ATP. This process takes place in chloroplasts‚ which is a plastid that contains chlorophyll and involves two interlinked reactions‚ which are light dependent reactions and light independent reactions. Throughout our lab experiment‚ we focused on the affect access of light has on carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Carbon

Living things get energy to do things through photosynthesis‚ food molecule breakdown‚ build up‚ storage‚ and lastly cellular respiration. All of these ideas are the reason that myself and others have energy to do anything and everything. Photosynthesis is one way plants(plants are the main source of energy for all things)get energy to do things. The reactants of this are water‚ carbon dioxide‚ and although light energy is not a reactant‚ it is necessary once the energy from the seed is gone. Carbon
