which of the following statements is true about photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
A.The chemical equations for the processes are opposite of each other.
B.Both processes are carried out in the same location in the cell.
C.The steps in both processes are very similar to each other.
D.Photodynthesis occurs in plants; cellular respiraation occurs in animals.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A.The chemical equations for the processes are opposite of each other.

Photosynthesis involves the production of food by green plants in the presence of water, carbon dioxide and light energy.

The equation for photosynthesis is:

6CO₂ + 6H₂0 + Light Energy → C₆H₁₂O₆+ 6O₂

Cellular respiration on the other hand involves the process by which the energy derived from carbohydrates is converted to ATP(adenosine triphosphate) which is a form of energy in the presence of oxygen.

The equation of cellular respiration is:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ --> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP.

The two equations are however very similar which makes option A correct

The statement that is true about photosynthesis and cellular respiration is  A.The chemical equations for the processes are opposite of each other.

Photosynthesis is a process that is used by plants and other organisms in order to convert light energy into chemical energy. Through cellular respiration, this can later be released to fuel the activities of the organism.

The equation for photosynthesis is given as 6CO₂ + 6H₂0 + Light Energy → C₆H₁₂O₆+ 6O₂

The equation of cellular respiration is given as C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ --> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP.

Therefore, the chemical equations for the processes are opposite of each other.
