and CO2. The equation for photosynthesis is “CO2+H2O+Energy--> (CH2O)n+O2, however, if this equation was read right to left, it would be respiration. Respiration mainly occurs within mitochondria in the cell, while photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast. Plants can perform photosynthesis and respiration while animals can only perform respiration and…

Cellular Respiration sugar and oxygen and Cellular Respiration gives carbon dioxide and water to Photosynthesis. The making of food using the sun's energy is called Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis occurs in the organism called Chloroplast. There is a green pigment inside the Chloroplast called Chlorophyll which absorbs light from the sun. Then the Chlorophyll uses the energy to make food. The Main Ingredients or reactants of Photosynthesis are Carbon Dioxide and Water. As we breathe out Carbon…

Chloroplast is membrane bound organelle inside plant cells. chloroplast like many other organelles has a specific job. Chloroplast absorbs sunlight and uses it with water and carbon dioxide gas to produce food for the plant. chloroplasts also have the pigment chlorophyll, which absorbs deep-blue and red light, so that the rest of the sunlight spectrum is being reflected, causing the plant to look green. Chloroplasts also contain flattened sacs known as thylakoids…

non-membrane-bound components in common with eukaryotes. Eukaryotes are made of several key organelles whose functions of energy production are only found in eukaryotic cells. Chloroplasts are organelles that make food in the form of carbohydrates by using photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy. Chloroplasts have two membranes that surround themselves and…

the vacuole can cause the nucleus to be located at the edge of the cell. Furthermore, another major difference between plant and animal cells is the presence of chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are known to be the food producers for the cell. These organelles can only be found in plant cells, animal cells do not contain chloroplasts. Chloroplasts conduct photosynthesis. These organelles work to convert light energy obtained from the Sun, and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to…

cell has lytic vacuoles. They both do the same thing; they digest excess or worn out organelles and food particles. Even though the animal cell has microtubules, the plant cell has chloroplasts. The microtubules move around all of the organelles in a plant cell including mitochondria, like a conveyer belt. The chloroplasts use photosynthesis to make food, energy, and heat. The animal cell has centrioles, however, the plant cell has a cell wall. The centrioles are mainly involved in cell division…

sunlight to produce sugar, which cellular respiration converts into ATP, the "fuel" used by all living things. The site of photosynthesis is the chloroplast, which are disc-shaped organelles found in the mesophyll of the leaf in the palisade layer. They have outer and inner membranes with an inner membrane space between them. The stroma in the middle of the chloroplast contain membrane discs known as thylakoids, arranged in interconnected stacks called granum. The membrane of a thylakoid disc…

wall (made of carbs), sometimes have cilia or flagella (movement). Eukaryotic Cells are larger cells, complex, with nucleus, membrane bound organelles, DNA tightly wrapped around histone proteins in chromosomes, cellulose in plant cell walls. 3. Chloroplasts are present in plant cells but not animals. They do photosynthesis and make energy. Also, cell walls, which provide structure to plant cells, are not present in animal cells. Finally, the central vacuole, which is a membranous sac in a…

Plastids, is not the correct answer. Plastids are one of the plant organelles (Campbell, pg. 111). Different plastids have different color. Chloroplast is a green plastids while amyplast is a colorless plastids (Campbell, pg. 111; Citovsky, Lecture 10). The major function of plastids is storage of starch (Campbell, pg. 70). Since the major function of plastids is not about movement of cells, Choice…
