Both photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the main pathways of energy transportation in organisms. However‚ the reactants and the products are exact opposites in photosynthesis and in cellular respiration. In photosynthesis‚ cells take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) by absorbing energy from the sun‚ and then the cells release oxygen (O2) and store glucose (C6H12O6). The formula of photosynthesis is: Light energy 6CO2+6H2O → C6H12O6+6O2

What is Life? This perennial question the answer to which has somehow eluded the most brilliant minds. For while scientists have identified many years ago the right mix of the atoms and molecules that constitute cellular material‚ they have not succeeded in ‘switching it on’ to make it alive‚ or ‘breathing life’ into it (Rabago et.al‚2006) In this module you will: a. Explain the concepts of the cell theory b. Identify the parts of a cell c. Describe the function of each cell part d. Differentiate

difference between the two is that photosynthesis takes place completely in plants while respiration occurs equally in plants and animals. Nevertheless to understand Photosynthesis and respiration‚ we need to understand what is photosynthesis and cellular respiration and examine each of these processes in detail and associate them to the parts of a cell responsible for each function. Photosynthesis is the procedure in which green plants use sunlight‚ carbon dioxide and

Magnesium sulphate MgSO4 showed the higher amount of carbon dioxide evolved which was measurable through volume and was one of the by- products of cellular respiration. This stated that the higher amount of CO2 evolved‚ the higher the rate of respiration. Thus‚ the hypothesis “If enzymes need cofactors to speed up its function‚ cofactors affect the rate of cellular respiration.” was accepted. Smith fermentation tube assembly containing 15 ml of 10% yeast concentration with different substrates was used

Cellular Energetics: The Rate of Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis over Time Among Various Variables By: Ethan Barnett Introduction Cellular Energetics is the broad term that encompasses both cellular respiration and photosynthesis and refers to how energy changes and reacts within cells. Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down sugars (ATP) in order to produce energy for other chemical reactions. Cellular respiration takes place mainly in the mitochondria and the reactants

Cellular Processes Lab # 9 Biology 2010 By‚ Jani Hagen U#74644799 November 21‚ 2014 Abstract All cells undergo cellular resperation to produce energy. Common sources of energy include glucose‚ fructose‚ sucrose‚ startch‚ and fatty acids. The process varies depending on the fuel the cell is using. This report will show these differences by exopsing the yeast to several different conditions. The rate of the fermentation can be tracked by noting the carbon dioxide production at steady intervals

Cellular Respiration and Fermentation Facts to Remember 1. Cellular respiration is a catabolic series of reactions. 2. All living forms conduct some form of cellular respiration‚ either aerobic or anaerobic. a. Aerobic is in the presence of oxygen b. Anaerobic is in the absence of oxygen or none oxygen requiring. 3. The starting molecules consist of the biological molecules with carbohydrates (monosaccharides) as the first choice. The order of use is given below. a. Carbohydrates b.
