Question

Imagine that you are a plant. Describe the process of producing glucose (photosynthesis) and then generating ATP for cell use (cellular respiration) as you experience these processes.

Answer 1

During the process of photosynthesis, cells use carbon dioxide and energy from the Sun to make sugar molecules and oxygen. ... Then, via respiration processes, cells use oxygen and glucose to synthesize energy-rich carrier molecules, such as ATP, and carbon dioxide is produced as a waste product. Which is then needed for cellular respiration.
