1. Explain how photosynthesis and respiration are linked in order to provide you with energy from the food you eat. Include in your paper: •Complete descriptions of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration. •Describe how these two processes are linked between plants and animals based on the reactants and products (water‚ carbon dioxide‚ glucose and oxygen) of both pathways. •Include a description of how energy is transferred from sunlight to ATP‚ from ATP to sugars‚ and from sugars

Conclusions At the end of Part A in this experiment‚ it can be determined that Sodium Chloride had the highest amount of conductivity tested by all groups. On the graph above‚ the data shows that NaCl (sodium chloride) held the highest amount of electrical conductivity for all groups and on the table it reads the highest numbers across its row. Also as seen in the data above‚ ethanol had the lowest amount of conductivity with sucrose‚ acetic acid‚ ammonia‚ and MgCl2 following in ascending order

The respiration and photosynthesis cycle is the process by which plants and animals interact in a codependent and symbiotic manner to produce the nutrients‚ gases‚ and energy that they require to survive. Plants obtain energy from sunlight and use it to combine carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process is called photosynthesis. Animals eat plants containing glucose‚ and combine glucose and oxygen‚ releasing energy‚ water‚ and carbon dioxide. This process is called respiration

Factors Limiting Photosynthesis The rate of photosynthesis increases with increasing light intensity. But too much light intensity can slow down the rate of photosynthesis because the light damages chloroplasts in the leaf. The higher the temperature the greater the rate of photosynthesis as photosynthesis is a chemical reaction and chemical reactions increase with temperature. But at temperatures above 40 C the rate slows down because the enzymes involved are destroyed

complexes. Chlorophyll molecules use their energy to strip water molecules‚ and biological molecules then adding hydrogen to them. In prokaryotes instead of chloroplast they use their own cell membranes to do the job. Wavelength also has a role in photosynthesis because they have just the right amount of energy to excite chlorophyll electrons boosting them to a higher energy level. When summing everything up the reactants are carbon dioxide‚ water‚ and the suns energy and the process is light dependent

Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis Photosynthesis is the process by which plants‚ some bacteria‚ and some protistans use the energy from sunlight to produce sugar‚ which cellular respiration converts into ATP‚ the "fuel" used by all living things. The conversion of unusable sunlight energy into usable chemical energy‚ is associated with the actions of the green pigment chlorophyll. Most of the time‚ the photosynthetic process uses water and releases the oxygen. Cellular respiration

of ATP. Although both processes are found in double membraned organelles‚ photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts in plant cells and cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of animal cells. Photosynthesis uses water and carbon dioxide as reactants to produce glucose and oxygen where as cellular respiration uses glucose and molecular oxygen as reactants to produce water‚ carbon dioxide‚ and energy (ATP). Photosynthesis is a two part process which includes photophosphorylation (light reactions)

Photosynthesis The leaves are the part of a plant where most photosynthesis takes place. If you cut a leaf in half and look at the cut end‚ it would look like this: Key: 1. Waxy cuticle: this gives the leaf a waterproof layer‚ which lets in light. 2. Upper epidermis: provides an upper surface. 3. Palisade cells: contain chloroplasts. 4. Spongy mesophyll: collection of damp‚ loosely packed cells. 5. Lower epidermis: layer of cells on the lower surface. 6. Air

How does photosynthesis impact the flow of energy and the cycling of nutrients‚ you ask? Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis provides the base for the one way flow of energy through the biosphere. Plants convert energy from the sun into sugars‚ which provide fuel for themselves and for other organisms. Photosynthesis also cycles carbon and oxygen nutrients through the
