What is the relationship between photosynthesis and respiration with respect to energy
motikmotik
“Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by- products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.”

What are the advantages of live birth compared to ovulation?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer

Just think critically about why (if you were an egg laying species), having a fetus/baby develop inside of you would be advantageous.

For one, eggs are much less protected from outside factors such as predators, temperature, etc than live birthed creatures. Live birth provides protection inside the mothers body from things such as heat, cold, moisture, predatory animals, etc. An egg laying animal must keep its eggs at a perfect temperature and check to make sure no other animal has eaten them.
