lack of exercise- cardiovascular disease
What is photosynthesis 
Endothermic reaction
process by which plant and other organisms produce glucose (food)
carbon dioxide + water = glucose + oxygen
Aerobic respiration  
Respiration with oxygen
oxygen + glucose = carbon dioxide +water + energy
Anaerobic respiration  
Respiration without oxygen
glucose = lactic acid + energy
