oD 4.1 Respiration Why organisms undergo respiration What is respiration and why do we need it? Respiration is the process whereby energy is released from food molecules (most usually glucose). It takes place inside living cells‚ both eukaryotic and prokaryotic. The process takes place inside the cytoplasm and the mitochondria. Energy is used to synthesise adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‚ which acts as a short-term energy store in cells. All living organisms need energy to drive their

effect of differing wavelengths of visible light on the photosynthetic activity of Beta vulgaris Introduction Photosynthesis is a crucial biological process that occurs within the chloroplasts of plant cells where CO2 + H2O + Sunlight C6H12O6 + O2. The chloroplasts use light‚ an electromagnetic energy source‚ to produce food for the plant in the form of sugar molecules. During photosynthesis‚ the excited electrons from the light pass through proteins in the electron transport chain (ETC)‚ where ATP

Biology practical 10 Photosynthesis January‚ the 28th‚ 2013 Done by: Instructor: Introduction Respiration is the number of processes which leads to the oxidation of organic compounds to produce the energy. There are several types of respiration‚ and one of them is aerobic. During the aerobic respiration‚ human uses the oxygen from atmosphere and produce carbon dioxide. A cardiorespiratory system which includes lungs‚ heart‚ blood vessels and others is responsible for all the processes

materials both plants and animals take in to grow and prosper. 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. 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

Cellular respiration is defined as an enzyme mediated process in which organic compounds such as glucose is broken down into simpler products with the release of energy (Duka‚ Diaz and Villa‚ 2009). It is a series of metabolic processes and oxidation-reduction reactions. Oxidation of substrates‚ such as glucose‚ is a fundamental part of cellular respiration (Mader‚ 2009). As a catabolic process‚ it may or may not require the presence of oxygen. The process that requires oxygen is called aerobic
