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

respiration in animals. All plants and animals do cellular respiration. Respiration is the release of energy‚ which occurs in the living things’ cells. Cellular respiration is the use of glucose and oxygen to yield ATP which is usable energy. Glucose is broken down into glycolysis‚ which is then used to make ATP. ATP is the usable form of energy which allows organism to function. Almost all organisms do cellular respiration‚ others do anaerobic respiration. Cellular respiration is a part of metabolism‚ which

Cellular Respiration In this lab the effects of different substrates on the rate of cellular respiration is being put to a test which is a very interesting experiment. The three major substrate solutions being used for this experiment are glucose‚ maltose‚ and alanine. The issues this experiment addresses are cellular respiration occur in different stages which are glycolysis‚ citric acid cycle‚ and fermentation. In this lab the experiment determines the effect of different substrates on

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

Understanding the function of cellular respiration and fermentation is easy to learn. However it is more difficult to learn the process of glucose being converted into energy. Cellular respiration has four stages‚ of which a phase can consist of eight or ten steps. In the Krebs Cycle alone‚ there are ten steps‚ where the input of Acetyl CoA is eventually reconverted back into oxaloacetate. Fermentation is also no different. It can be difficult for students to understand what the role of NADH

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

This report will overview the redox reaction - cellular respiration: C5H12O6 + 02 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy and it’s use with the human body. Cellular respiration is a chemical process providing the body with usable and fast source of energy in the form of ATP. Along with ATP cellular respiration also produces CO2‚ H2O and Heat. This is an organic redox reaction. Redox reactions Redox reaction occur when there is a movement of electrons between atoms. Part of a redox reaction include: Oxidising Agent:

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.
