What 2 stages make up aerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration is divided into three main stages: Glycolysis, Citric acid cycle and Electron transport chain. Glycolysis: Glucose ( 6 carbon atoms) is split into 2 molecules of glyceraldehyde phosphate (3 carbon each), then these are turned into pyruvate (3 carbons each).
What is aerobic respiration in photosynthesis?
How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration connected?
| Photosynthesis | Cellular Respiration (Aerobic) | |
|---|---|---|
| Function for the organism | Use light, water, and carbon dioxide to create food for the organism in the form of sugar (glucose) | Use glucose to make a form of energy the organism can use in cellular processes (ATP) |
What are the two steps of anaerobic respiration?
Glycolysis and fermentation are the two steps of anaerobic respiration.
What are 2 similarities and 2 differences between photosynthesis and aerobic respiration?
Photosynthesis and aerobic respiration are both part of a cyclic process of biochemical reactions. Photosynthesis requires the products of aerobic respiration (carbon dioxide and water), while aerobic respiration requires the products of photosynthesis (glucose and oxygen).
Is photosynthesis an aerobic process or an anaerobic process?
The photosynthetic process in all plants and algae, as well as in specific types of bacteria, involves the reduction of carbon dioxide to carbohydrate and the removal of electrons from water, resulting in the release of oxygen. This process is known as oxygenic or aerobic photosynthesis.
Where does Stage 2 of photosynthesis occur?
stroma
Photosynthesis Stage II: The Calvin Cycle. The second stage of photosynthesis takes place in the stroma surrounding the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast. The reactions of this stage can occur without light, so they are sometimes called light-independent or dark reactions.
