Mike discovered that the product of cellular respiration are the raw materials of Photosynthesis while the products of photosynthesis served as the raw materials for cellular respiration.
He also discovered that respiration is a catabolic process while photosynthesis is an anabolic process.
Another interesting fact seen by Mike is, the respiration releases energy while photosynthesis takes in energy.
Explanation:
- In the equation of cellular respiration , we can see that glucose and oxygen are utilized in the mitochondrion to produce carbon dioxide , water and chemical energy in the form of ATP.
- Glucose breaks down during cellular respiration .
- Again if we look at the chemical equation for photosynthesis in the chloroplast, we find that Carbon dioxide,which was produced during respiration is utilized along with water in presence of light energy to give out oxygen and Sugar (glucose)
Answer:
Hi there!
Your answer is:
It is very important for the cell membrane to be <em>semi-permeable</em> because the ability to pick and choose what comes in and out of the cell keeps the cell safe! The membrane can choose to block out nasty germs and can also choose to get rid of internal waste.
An example of when this is important is in this scenario:
Let's say the cells are in a really salty solution. Naturally, salt will want to pull the water out of the cell. If the membrane <u>wasn't</u><u> </u> semi permeable, the water would listen to the salt and leave the cell. This would cause cell death. <u>BECAU</u><u>SE</u> the membrane is semi permeable, they can choose <em>not</em> to give the salt any water, keeping them alive
Hope this helps
A The observed differences in plants height are due to genetics.
Release of a neurotransmitter across the synapse is triggered by the entry of Ca++ into the presynaptic axon. No Ca++ entry means no transmission across the synapse.
