The harmony between producers and consumers in ecosystems is crucial to the survival of organisms on Earth.
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are two interdependent biological processes in terrestrial ecosystems, such as in African savannas.
This interdependence is also present among aquatic organisms as various marine animals rely on photosynthetic phytoplankton for food.
Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide into glucose by using solar energy.
Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to produce usable chemical energy.
Photosynthesis excites electrons by using solar energy and builds up a H+ gradient.
Cellular respiration reduces specific electron carriers during earlier stages.
Photosynthesis uses ATP and NADPH during carbon fixation reactions.
Cellular respiration involves the oxidation of electron carriers to produce ATP molecules.
Cellular respiration consists of glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain, and chemiosmosis, all of which involve a series of oxidation-reduction reactions.
The light-dependent reaction involves the absorption of solar energy, which causes the electrons in both photosystems to increase their energy states and become excited.
The Calvin cycle involves carbon fixation, reduction of G3P molecules, and ribulose 1,5- bisphosphate regeneration.
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis both involve the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose by using solar energy.
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis both involve the breakdown of glucose to produce usable chemical energy.
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis both involve the excitation of electrons by using solar energy and the building up of a H+ gradient.
The nature of cellular respiration and photosynthesis involves redox reactions, electron flow, ATP synthesis, and phosphorylation.
Electron flow is the process by which electrons move through a circuit.
Phosphorylation is the process by which phosphate groups are added to proteins.
Respiration and photosynthesis are different in that respiration takes place in mitochondria, while photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts.
There are four stages involved in cellular respiration, namely glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain, and chemiosmosis.
The reactants of cellular respiration are the products of photosynthesis and vice versa.
Redox reactions are a type of chemical reaction that involves the conversion of electrons.
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis both involve the reduction of specific electron carriers during earlier stages.
The overall equation for photosynthesis is shown below.
Respiration and photosynthesis are similar in that they involve redox reactions, electron flow, ATP synthesis, and phosphorylation.
ATP synthesis is the process by which ATP molecules are produced through the flow of electrons through protein complexes and ADP phosphorylation.
Photosynthesis involves two stages, namely the light-dependent and light-independent reactions.
The possible effects on the plants when the rate of photosynthesis slows down are not known.
Both cellular respiration and photosynthesis involve reduction-oxidation reactions and the ATP synthesis that results from the flow of electrons through the protein complexes and ADP phosphorylation.
Photosynthesis is considered as endothermic, while cellular respiration is exothermic.
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are both metabolic processes, but cellular respiration is considered as catabolic, while photosynthesis is anabolic.
Cellular respiration uses ATP and NADPH during carbon fixation reactions.
Water, obtained from soil or as water vapor, is also a reactant in photosynthesis.
Glucose, produced as O2 is reduced and reacts with H+, is the main product of the breakdown of glucose in photosynthesis.
The overall equation for photosynthesis involves reactants such as glucose and oxygen molecules, and products like carbon dioxide, water, and ATP molecules.
