between Photosynthesis and cellular respiration Introduction: Photosynthesis is the process which used by plants to capture light energy and use it to do chemical reactions that change carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and energy (ATP)‚ carbohydrates just like sugar. Cellular respiration is the process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food with oxygen. Plants cells do photosynthesis and cellular respiration both ‚but animal cells can only do the cellular respiration. In photosynthesis

This lab was split up into two different experiments‚ using different variables in each. During the first section of the lab‚ we investigated the what the effect of light is on both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Our hypothesis about this effect was that the cuvette representing ‘no light’‚ being covered in foil‚ would result in a yellow CO2 indicator fluid‚ meaning that there was a decrease in pH and a high level of CO2 was present. Additionally‚ we hypothesized that the cuvette that was

Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration lab makeup Photosynthesis absorbs energy from the the sunlight ‚and water‚and carbon dioxide to to create energy sugar ‚and oxygen. Photosynthesis also absorbs molecules that are called pigments. The process of photosynthesis is used by plants to make food for themselves. By then doing this‚ it also benefits us humans and animals by releasing carbon dioxide. Oxygen to them is considered a waste product‚ but a necessity to us. The photosynthesis

Chapter 7 and 8 discuss and give in depth details on photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They are the exact opposites in what they set out to complete in the cells of a leaf. Photosynthesis takes light energy and separates it in the chloroplasts to create glucose. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to provide energy for the cell. The similarities between them include overlap in some of the enzymes and products and reactants utilized. The differences include the cycles and steps taken to

Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Nina R. McCray May 5‚ 2015 Biology Lab (SCIE207-1502-A-07) LaDonna McCowan-Ferrier Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Lab Report Introduction This is an investigation of the effect of the intensity of light (photosynthesis) have on the rate of cellular respiration (measured as the number of oxygen bubbles). We will determine whether or not it is possible to examine the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration under controlled

Lab #2: Energy in Cell Virtual Lab - Week 3 NAME: ________________________________________ 1. What is the importance of the light and dark reactions in photosynthesis? Photosynthesis works by absorbing light. Our sun gives off energy and the chlorophyll from the plant absorb this energy. The energy is then used to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen and then they combine hydrogen and carbon dioxide to make sugars. 2. What happens to food energy during photosynthesis? During

“Respiration” and “Photosynthesis” All life depends on two chemical reactions “Respiration” and “Photosynthesis”. These two processes are quite crucial because they are a source to nearly all life on Earth. Both of these processes are quite similar yet differentiate vastly. In this essay I’ll be comparing and contrasting “Photosynthesis” and “Respiration”. I’ll start by discussing what actually happens
Premium Photosynthesis Carbohydrate
In photosynthesis‚ light energy is transformed into chemical energy‚ thus chemical energy is the product. This is different from respiration because respiration transforms chemical energy into energy usable by cells; in this case chemical energy is the source. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts‚ using the chlorophyll inside of the chloroplasts‚ while respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a by-product‚ while aerobic respiration requires oxygen to even work

Benjamin Kleveland 502 October 26‚ 2014 Lab 7 Report Lights Distance and Wavelength Effect on Photosynthesis Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are often mistaken as the same thing. Although they are similar in many ways‚ photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the exact opposite of each other. Not figuratively‚ but literally the reverse (Photosynthesis). They incorporate the others products while adding some outside energy to create a never ending cycle. This brings us to the photochemical
