Respiration

Photosynthesis is the most important chemical reaction in the world in

terms of human life. However, did you know that phytoplankton, an
aggregate of one-celled plants that live at the ocean surface, accounts for
the production of more than 50 percent of the oxygen produced
photosynthesis.

A
Aerobic chemical process in which oxygen is used to make energy
Respiration from carbohydrates (sugars)

the process by which the body utilizes the energy released by catabolism to
synthesize complex molecules
Anabolism

the process of ATP synthesis without adequate oxygen delivery to tissues

Anaerobic
Respiration

the sequences of enzyme-catalyzed reactions by which relatively large

Catabolis molecules in living cells are broken down, or degraded

A chemical process in which oxygen is used to make energy from carbohydrates

(sugars).
Cellular

is

the fluid portion of the cytoplasm exclusive of organelles and membranes.

Cytosol

chemical process by which molecules such as glucose are broken down

anaerobically.
Fermentatio
n

The chemical changes that take place in a cell or an organism.

Metabolism

Small structures in a cell that are found in the cytoplasm (fluid that surrounds the cell
nucleus).
MItochondri
a

A chemical reaction that takes place when a substance comes into contact with
oxygen or another oxidizing substance.
Oxidation
 Respiration

Oxidation- a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two
species.
Reduction
Reactions

the act or process of reducing : the state of being reduced. : something made by
reducing.

What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Cellular respiration that proceeds in the absence of oxygen is anaerobic
respiration. Cellular respiration that proceeds in the presence of oxygen is aerobic
respiration.

 Photosynthesis vs Respiration
Instructions: Put the correct characteristics under either
photosynthesis or respiration.

Photosynthesis Cellular Respiration

CO2 and H2O are used O2 and food are used

ATP is produced through

Food and O2 are produced photophosphorylation

ATP is produced through Respiration occurs in light

oxidative phosphorylation and dark

Energy from light is trapped

CO2 and H2O are produced
by chlorophyll and food

Photosynthesis occurs only in Every living cell carries out

light respiration

Only cells containing

chlorophyll carry out
photosynthesis
