    for cellular respiration and photosynthesis are almost exact opposites. Photosynthesis is anabolic; it builds up glucose‚ or sugar‚ from light energy‚ water and carbon dioxide. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy C6H12O6 + 6O2. Cellular respiration‚ on the other hand‚ is catabolic. It breaks down glucose to form carbon dioxide and water. The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + 38 ATP. Cellular respiration and photosynthesis

    Effect of Boiling on the Rate of Aerobic Respiration of Germinating Peas Abstract Aerobic respiration is an enzyme mediated process during which glucose is used to make ATP to fuel the cells energy needs. Germination is one of such processes that make use of aerobic respiration and because certain factors can affect aerobic respiration‚ it would also affect germination. In this experiment‚ we examined the effects of boiling on the rate of aerobic respiration of germinating peas. Unboiled germinating

    in photosynthesis? Photosynthesis works by absorbing light. Our sun gives off energy and the chlorophyll from the plant absorb this energy. The energy is then used to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen and then they combine hydrogen and carbon dioxide to make sugars. 2. What happens to food energy during photosynthesis? During cellular respiration? In Photosynthesis light energy along with carbon dioxide are used to make molecules or (food energy). In Cellular Respiration food

    have heard the terms aerobics and anaerobic‚ but most people don’t know what those terms mean. These two terms refer to the presence and absence of oxygen. Our bodies cells choose to get the energy that they need using oxygen to fuel metabolism. During an aerobic activity the muscle cells can contract repeatedly without fatigue. During anaerobics the muscle cell doesn’t rely on oxygen to fuel the muscle contractions. It relies on its natural body chemicals. Aerobics is a low to moderate exercise

    Photosynthesis is the process of transforming light energy into chemical energy that is used to build carbohydrates. Light reactions occur in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast‚ sunlight and water are the substrates for this reaction. The conversion of light energy can go through two pathways: noncyclic and cyclic. In noncyclic light transport‚ both Photosystems II and I are involved producing ATP and NADPH. Photosystem II absorbs 680 nm of light energy‚ with the oxidation of water; chlorophyll
