Answer: The word equation for photosynthesis is -

Carbon dioxide + Water → Glucose+ Oxygen

Photosynthesis is a process of formation of food in green plants and algae. In this process, light energy from sun is absorbed ( by chlorophyll) in the presence of carbon dioxide and water through a series of chemical reactions.

This produces chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADH. This is utilized in the formation of food, which is a carbohydrate ( glucose).

Glucose and Oxygen are produced as byproduct of the photosynthesis.

Why does aerobic respiration produce more ATP than anaerobic respiration?

erik [133]

Aerobic respiration produces more ATP than anaerobic respiration because aerobic respiration occurs when oxygen is present and is then able to produce ATP as normal with a profit. However, anaerobic respiration has a lack of oxygen, which leads to either fertilization, only producing enough ATP to keep the cycle going and the cell surviving, (not creating any excess/profit ATP).

Energy pyhamids, otherwise known as trophic level diagrams, are used to represent the flow of

raketka [301]

From the total energy that reaches the ground, 1% is used by producers. The energy transference in the trophic web follows the 10% rule, in which each level uses 10% of the energy stored by the anterior level.

---------------------------------------

Only 1% of the total solar energy that reaches the ground is used by producers, who occupy the first trophic level.

From this input of solar energy, it begins a unidirectional energy flow through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is finally dissipated in the environment.

At each trophic level, it occurs an energy transfer from one level to the next, with only 10% being usable in each of them. This assessment is called "The 10% rule".

This is, as a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time.
