What would happen if we didn't have photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

1 answer:

4 0

1)Without photosynthesis: If we didn't have plants, algae and bacteria to do the photosynthesis, CO2, a air pollutant wouldn't be converted in to glucose for those organisms and there would be no more Oxygen released to the atmosphere. Less photosynthesis means less oxygen production and many organisms, like us, would die.
2)Without cellular respiration: Without this process we couldn't convert our food into the energy, ATP, necessary for the cells to function properly. Plus, this process also forms water, and without it, it would be another reason for the death of the cells.
Ultimately, will cause the death of the aerobic organism.

Which feedback mechanism is used to regulate blood glucose?

ASHA 777 [7]

B. a negative feedback loop because the blood glucose level was returned to the set point, not amplified

The glands which get involved are the pancreas and adrenal glands. During increase in blood sugar, the pancreas secretes insulin, a hormone produced by the beta cells of the pancreas. Insulin causes red blood cells, muscle cells and fat cell to absorb sugar from the blood.During decrease of blood sugar, the pancreas secretes glucagon, a hormone produced by the alpha cells of the pancreas. Glucagon causes the liver to release the glucose stored in its cells.The Adrenal gland secretes cortisol during times of low blood sugar levels. Cortisol promotes the use of fatty acids to provide energy for working muscles, rather than using glucose.
