Answer:

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. ... 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.

Answer:

Photosynthesis is when energy, carbon dioxide and water react to produce glucose and oxygen. It is an endothermic reaction (takes in more energy than it gives off).

glucose  +  oxygen  + (energy)  →  carbon dioxide  +  water

C 6 H 12 O 6  +  6 O 2  →  6 CO 2  +  6 H 2 O

Respiration is the process of producing energy from glucose. It uses glucose and oxygen to give water, carbon dioxide and energy (thus making it exothermic).

carbon dioxide   +  water  +  energy  →  glucose  +  oxygen  

6 CO 2  +  6 H 2 O  →  C 6 H 12 O 6  +  6 O 2

As you can see from the equations, they are essentially the reverse of each other.

Another difference is how they are used. Respiration occurs in the mitochondria of all living cells, whereas only plants photosynthesize.

In plants, they make their own glucose using the sun's energy, then respire to allow them to use the glucose for the energy they can use. The glucose can also be stored and used in many other ways other than in respiration.

Answer:

Geo thermal : Nuclear reactions

Bio mass : plants

Solar : sun rays

Hydro power : Water

Explanation:

Geothermal energy is also used to directly heat individual buildings and to heat multiple buildings with district heating systems. Hot water near the earth's surface is piped into buildings for heat. A district heating system provides heat for most of the buildings in Reykjavik , Iceland.

The major biomass sources currently used are sugar cane and corn to produce bioethanol , and rapeseed for biodiesel production. Other sources are also used such as sunflower seeds, soybean, canola, peanuts, jatropha , coconut and palm oil for biodiesel, and wheat, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and cassava for bioethanol

Conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity

Hydropower or water power is power derived from the energy of falling or fast-running water, which may be harnessed for useful purposes.
