    Chapter 7 and 8 discuss and give in depth details on photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They are the exact opposites in what they set out to complete in the cells of a leaf. Photosynthesis takes light energy and separates it in the chloroplasts to create glucose. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to provide energy for the cell. The similarities between them include overlap in some of the enzymes and products and reactants utilized. The differences include the cycles and steps taken to

    W0Associate Program Material Cell Energy Worksheet Answer the following questions: Cellular respiration: • What is cellular respiration and what are its three stages? Cellular respiration is a way cells store food and energy‚ a catabolic pathway for the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The cellular respiration happens in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. The three stages are Glycolysis‚ Citric cycle‚ and electron transport. • What is the role

    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

    Abstract The effect of nature of substrates on the rate of cellular respiration in yeast was determined by using the Smith fermentation tube method. Mixtures of 15ml distilled H2O‚ 10% yeast suspension and 15ml of the following solutions (all at 10% concentration):1- starch‚ 2 – lactose‚ 3 – sucrose‚ 4 – glucose‚ 5 – fructose‚ 6 – distilled water ‚ were poured in six smith fermentation tubes. Cotton balls were plugged in the openings of the tubes and the tubes were kept upright and observed for

    Respiration” and “Photosynthesis” All life depends on two chemical reactions “Respiration” and “Photosynthesis”. These two processes are quite crucial because they are a source to nearly all life on Earth. Both of these processes are quite similar yet differentiate vastly. In this essay I’ll be comparing and contrasting “Photosynthesis” and “Respiration”. I’ll start by discussing what actually happens

    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

    In photosynthesis‚ light energy is transformed into chemical energy‚ thus chemical energy is the product. This is different from respiration because respiration transforms chemical energy into energy usable by cells; in this case chemical energy is the source. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts‚ using the chlorophyll inside of the chloroplasts‚ while respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a by-product‚ while aerobic respiration requires oxygen to even work
