The Carbon Cycle : Synthesis, Cellular Respiration And Photosynthesis

In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are taken into the cells, then they are converted to carbon dioxide, water and ATP energy and some other energy. Some of the ATP energy is used in photosynthesis; a large amount of

Photosynthesis occurs each time the sun’s light reaches the lives of a plant. The chemical ingrediants for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide (CO2), a gas that passes from the air into a plant via tiny pores, and water (H20), which absorbed from the soil by the plant’s roots. Inside leaf cells, tiny structures called chloroplasts use light energy to rearrange the atoms of the ingrediants to produce sugars, most importantly glucose (C6H12O6) and other organic molecules. Chlorophyll gives the plant its green color (Simon, 02/2012, pp. 92-93). Chemical reactions transfers the sun’s light energy into the chemical bonds that hold energy-carrying molecules. The most common are

Cellular respiration is the chemical process in which organic molecules, such as sugars, are broken down in the cell to produce utilizable energy in the form of ATP. ATP is the chemical used by all of the energy-consuming metabolic activities of the cell. In order to extract energy from these organic molecules, cellular respiration involves a network of metabolic pathways dedicated to this task.

Cellular respiration is a redox reaction that combines glucose & oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy.

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells get their energy in the form of ATP. There are two types of cellular respiration, aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration is more efficient and can be used in the presence of oxygen. Aerobic respiration, or cell respiration using oxygen, uses the end product of glycolysis in the TCA cycle to produce more energy currency in the form of ATP than can be obtained from an anaerobic pathway.

To be able to carry on metabolic processes in the cell, cells need energy. The cells can obtain their energy in different ways but the most efficient way of harvesting stored food in the cell is through cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is a catabolic pathway, which breaks down large molecules to smaller molecules, produces an energy rich molecule known as ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) and a waste product that is released as CO2.

Unlike photosynthesis, cellular respiration is an exergonic reaction where energy is released, rather than absorbed. This released energy is called ATP, the energy currency of the cell.

Cellular respiration is a process that happens in all living eukaryotic cells. What cellular respiration does is turn food often carbohydrates into energy for our bodies. Cellular respiration starts with a carbohydrates sugar called glucose. What it does is alter and break down the six carbon molecule glucose and altering it creating two three carbon molecules called pyruvic acids in an anaerobic process called glycolosis (Cellular respiration). What this process does is create two ATP molecules which are basically molecules which provide energy to run all cellular processes in our bodies (king). However, from here in the process can turn aerobic, meaning using oxygen if present or anaerobic meaning when oxygen is not present in a

Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration are essential for life on earth. They are connected; Photosynthesis makes glucose and oxygen which are then used in cellular respiration to produce ATP. The wastes of one process are the reactants for the other.  Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy. It takes place in the chloroplast of a plant. Pigments have the ability to absorb specific wavelengths of light. Different species perform photosynthesis differently, but only light absorbed by the photopigments can be used for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll a is the most abundant photosynthetic pigment in a plant; best absorbs wavelengths of 430 nm which is blue and 662 nm which is red (“Pigments,” n.d.). Elodea Canadensis is a water plant that can perform photosynthesis. Elodea is green, meaning that chlorophyll did not absorb the green portion of the light spectrum. The color green

Cellular respiration is a key cellular process that allows for the production of ATP that is used to power many other anabolic and catabolic activities. Respiration must be performed by all living cells in order to provide the necessary energy for the cell, but there are different forms of respiration that can be used by cells in differing circumstances. These forms include fermentation, anaerobic respiration, and anaerobic respiration. These different actions each produce ATP and function using similar actions. However, each of these processes hold substantial pieces that make them their own type of activity. These processes all use glycolysis and recycle NAD+, but yield different amounts of ATP and recycle NAD+ in different ways.

As far as we know, Earth is the only planet in our solar system that is able to sustain conditions suitable for life because of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. But in past few decades, the planet has been growing warmer due to the increase of greenhouse gases, specifically carbon dioxide, due to the increase of unnatural amounts of carbon that are being released into the atmosphere and can’t be gotten rid of or put to good use by the carbon cycle (Global Warming, 2016).

    Cellular respiration is the group metabolic reactions that happen in the cell of living organism that creates adenosine triphosphate, ATP, from biochemical energy. The formula for cellular respiration is C6H12O6 +6O26CO2+6H2O+ATP.  This formula means glucose and oxygen are turned into water,carbon dioxide and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) energy through chemical reactions. Cellular respiration occurs in all cells which allows them to grow. Raphanus raphanistrum subsp. Sativus seed, also known as radish seed, undergo cellular respiration because they are not yet able to perform photosynthesis, which is how plants create their energy. Hymenoptera formicidae,commonly known as ants, undergo cellular respiration to produce the energy they need to live.

     Photosynthesis has a two-stage performance before plants produce the two products they are known to produce. These stages are Photosystem I and II. Photosystem II is dependant on light reactions for energy which causes the electrons to be react and be transferred to Photosystem II. The electrons are transported through the Photosystem II electron transport system, however some energy is used to drive ATP synthesis. Meanwhile, light is being absorbed by the Photosystem I, which causes the electrons to react. This process sends the electrons to the Photosystem I transport system where some energy is released as electrons travel through the electron transport system and is captured as NADPH. When this process is completed oxygen is released from the plant and glucose has been

     Photosynthesis is a biochemical process in which plant, algae, and some bacteria harness the energy of light to produce food. Nearly all living things depend on energy produced from photosynthesis for their nourishment, making it vital to life on Earth. It is also responsible for producing the oxygen that makes up a large portion of the Earth¡¦s atmosphere. Factors that affect photosynthesis are light intensity and wave length, carbon dioxide concentration, and temperature.

Photosynthesis entails a process that involves complex and fundamental actions that occur in plants, algae as well as some bacteria. They use sunlight to produce carbohydrates. Oxygen is then created from carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (Jackson, 2008). The carbohydrates created through photosynthesis enables growth and normal functioning for the plant to sustain life. Here is an example of a formulation of photosynthesis by Campbell et al.
