Answer:

In geology and mineralogy, a mineral or mineral species is, broadly speaking, a solid chemical compound with a fairly well-defined chemical composition and a specific crystal structure that occurs naturally in pure form

Explanation:

Silicate Minerals. The first classification of minerals is silicate minerals.  

Native Element Minerals. Native elements refer to minerals that only contain the atoms of one type of element.  

Carbonate Minerals.  

Halide Minerals.  

Oxide Minerals.

Mineral nutrients for the human body include: iron, calcium, copper, sulfur, phosphorus, magnesium and many others. An archaic use of the word "mineral" comes from the Linnaean taxonomy in which all things can be assigned to the animal, vegetable, and mineral kingdoms.

Answer:

<u>The process of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast</u>. Photosynthesis can be described as a process in which plants convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. Oxygen is the by-product of the reaction. The energy for this reaction is taken by the chloroplast by trapping light energy of the Sun.

The reaction for photosynthesis can be written as:

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

<u>The process of cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria.</u> Respiration can be described as a process in which glucose and oxygen get converted into carbon dioxide and water. Energy is released by this process which is used for many cellular activities. Hence, mitochondria is known as the powerhouse of a cell.

The reaction of cellular respiration can be summed up as:

C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 --> 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + ATP

Both, these processes provide energy for the working of cells.
