Answer:
This question is not well structured. Based on understanding, the correct structure should be: How are the processes of photosynthesis and respiration opposites of one another?
They are opposite because photosynthesis uses the products of cellular respiration and vice versa.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are both metabolic processes that occurs within the cells of living organisms. Photosynthesis is the process where green plants synthesize food (sugar) in the presence of sunlight using carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). The general equation is as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
On the other hand, respiration is the process whereby cells of living organisms synthesize usable energy (ATP) for use by breaking down glucose (C6H12O6) in the presence of oxygen. The equation is as follows:
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O
Based on the observation of the reactants and products of each process, it can be realized that the PRODUCTS of one process is the REACTANTS of the other. In other words, photosynthesis makes use of CO2 and water as REACTANTS, which are the PRODUCTS of respiration while cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen as REACTANTS, which are PRODUCTS of photosynthesis.
If a person comes in contact with this same virus years later, our body produces antibodies to get rid of or kill the virus
Explanation:
When a person is infected by a virus, the infected person's body develops antibodies as an immune response to act against the virus. Antibodies are produced as part of humoral immunity.
Antibodies work by neutralizing the viral activity, agglutination, phagocytosis or by complement system.
Antibodies are protein compounds which can recognize the invading pathogens and attack them.
Antigens or viral proteins in the virus leads to the production of antibodies in the host's body.
The specific antibodies triggers innate immune response upon detecting specific viral antigens when infected and will help the body to get rid of or kill the virus.
The answer is it is a waste product produced by cellular respiration.
During Gas exchange in the lungs, oxygen replaces carbon dioxide, and oxygen,
oxygenates blood that spreads throughout the body, the Carbon Dioxide, which is
expelled from the lungs originated from the cellular respiration, which occurred
inside the body.
Answer:
Mitochondria.
Reactants of cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen.
Explanation:
Mitochondria is the location of cellular respiration where glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen into energy in the form of ATP. When a glucose molecule is broken down with the help of oxygen, it produces energy, carbondioxide gas which is a waste material and water. There are three products of cellular respiration such as energy, carbondioxide and water. Energy is used by the organism in different activities while carbondioxide gas and water are removed from body through breathing. Using of glucose by mitochondria and converted into energy in the form of ATP is the energy flow.
