Mitochondria

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration, look at the picture
Anika [276]

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)

This was simulation. What are some variables that this peppered moths simulation does not address?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The simulation only shows how a population can change overtime in response to the changes in the environment. During the industrial revolution, one particular phenotype of moths had an advantage over the other and hence, was subjected to natural selection. What this simulation does not tell us is the causality and correlation aspect of the change that occurs in the moths. Correlation does not equal causation, and the simulation does not shed any light on these variables in this case.

Explanation:

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
