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

larCellular respiration in sports Kerb cycle The Krebs cycle refers to a complex series of chemical reactions that produce carbon dioxide and Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‚ a compound rich in energy. The cycle occurs by essentially linking two carbon coenzyme with carbon compounds; the created compound then goes through a series of changes that produce energy. This cycle occurs in all cells that utilize oxygen as part of their respiration process; this includes those cells of creatures from the

Photosythesis and Cellular Respiration are both processes in Biology which transform energy in one form to another. Photosythesis is the process in which light energy is converted into chemical energy to produce glucose. Cellular respiration is the metabolic process in which food is broken down to form stored energy in the form 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
Free Photosynthesis Adenosine triphosphate Cellular respiration
Cellular respiration is the process of converting chemical energy of organic molecules such as glucose into a form of energy usable by organisms. This energy is mainly produced in the mitochondrial matrix and takes form in the molecule adenosine triphosphate [also known as ATP]‚ which is made up of an adenosine with a three phosphate tail group. The reason why ATP produces energy is due to the loss of the third phosphate group. The third phosphate‚ when released‚ releases the bond energy and supplies
Premium Adenosine triphosphate Cellular respiration Metabolism
Cellular respiration‚ which synthesis ATP‚ begins with glycolysis‚ wherein a six-carbon glucose is broken down into two three-carbon molecules called pyruvate. This process requires the input of two ATPs to produce two pyruvates‚ two NADHs‚ and 4 ATPs. The NADHs are synthesised when NAD+‚ delivered by B vitamins‚ become bound to hydrogen and energised electrons1. Following glycolysis is the Krebs cycle and electron transport chain respectively. The Krebs cycle uses the two pyruvates produced in glycolysis

Mitosis. Experimental Hypothesis: If we put onion root tips in IAA solution then the rate of Mitosis will increase. Null Hypothesis: There will be no difference Part 1- Post Lab Question If a cell contains a set of duplicated chromosomes‚ does it contain any more genetic information than the cell before the chromosomes were duplicated? No‚ because if it is duplicated‚ it would have the same number of chromosomes unless there was a mistake. Why do chromosomes condense before
