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

With the growth of food import/export around the world and the opportunities of expansion in foreign coutries: Could Brillat-Savarin’s statement still be possible today or has it completely lost ground? Food is one of the fields in which globalization has faced and is facing

Cellular Respiration Photosynthesis Organelles Mitochondria Chloroplast Organelle Structures The double-membraned mitochondrion can be loosely described as a large wrinkled bag packed inside of a smaller‚ unwrinkled bag. The two membranes create distinct compartments within the organelle‚ and are themselves very different in structure and in function. Two membranes contain and protect the inner parts of the chloroplast. The stroma is an area inside of the chloroplast where reactions occur and starches

variables that could affect the rate of photosynthesis and the net consumption of carbon dioxide. In this experiment‚ the effects of how the intensity of light energy affected photosynthesis were observed. Two pieces of elodea was placed into separate beakers and one of the beakers was placed under a bulb of lower intensity and the other beaker being placed under a higher intensity bulb. The results showed that the beaker under the higher intensity light energy had a higher consumption of carbon dioxide

Those simple particles‚ bonded together in such a unique way that it can only create one individual: You.

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

CELLULAR RESPIRATION -is the set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‚ and then release waste products. The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions‚ which break large molecules into smaller ones‚ releasing energy in the process as weak so-called "high-energy" bonds are replaced by stronger bonds in the products. Respiration is one of the key ways
