Make a concept map that shows how photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related
lara31 [8.8K]
In plants, photosynthesis, occurring in chloroplasts, is an anabolic (bond-building) process whereby CO2 and H2O combine with the use of light (photon) energy. This yields O2 and sugar (i.e. glucose). This occurs in 2 phases: light-dependent and dark (Calvin cycle) reactions, which both continually recycle ADP/ATP and NADP/NADPH.
The catabolic (bond-breaking) process in plants is cellular respiration, in which glucose is broken down with O2 by glycolysis (cytoplasm only) and mitochondrial reactions (Krebs cycle and E.T.C.) to yield CO2 and H2O. These reactions recycle ADP/ATP and NAD/NADH. The CO2 and water produced by cellular respiration feed into the photosynthetic processes, and in turn, the O2 and glucose resulting from photosynthesis supply the respiratory reactions.

The cells of a mature pea plant have 10 chromosomes. How many chromosomes does a nucleus in the pea endosperm contain
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

15 chromosomes

Explanation:

The endosperm is formed through double fertilization where one male gamete nucleus with polar nuclei to form a triploid nucleus called the primary endosperm. The endosperm therefore will contain 15 chromosomes since the polar nuclei is diploid and the male gamete is haploid forming a triploid nucleus.
