Question
The left side of the Venn diagram
Photosynthesis
1. Occurs in cells that contain chloroplast.
2. Photosynthesis equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.
3. Raw materials of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water. Sunlight is the source of energy to carry out the reaction.
4. Also known as air, water and sunlight.
5. Products are oxygen and glucose.
6. The products of photosynthesis is also known as sugar or carbohydrate and oxygen.
7. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast of the cell. More specifically, the light reaction occurs in the grana of chloroplast and the dark reaction occurs in the stroma.
8. The photoautotrophs rely on photosynthesis for food and survival.
The middle portion of the venn diagram.
1. The equation of photosynthesis and cellular respiration are reverse of one another which means both the processes are opposite.
2. All the metabolic reactions occurring in the body makes life possible. So, the processes and events make life possible or to exist and they depend on one another for survival.
The right side of the venn diagram.
Cellular respiration
1. Cellular respiration in every type of organism. However, the utlilisation of oxygen for cellular respiration occurs only in aerobes while in anaerobic organisms such as some types of bacteria, cellular respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen.
2. Equation:
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
3. Raw materials are oxygen and glucose.
4. The raw materials of cellular respiration are also known as sugar or carbohydrate and oxygen.
5. Products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide and water. Sunlight is the source of energy to carry out the reaction.
4. Also known as air, water and sunlight.
6. Cellular respiration takes place in every type of cell and organism.
