RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Evaluate which statement is accurate:
A
Oxygen is a product of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is a product of cellular respiration
B
Carbon dioxide is a product of photosynthesis, oxygen is a product of cellular respiration
C
Glucose is a product of cellular respiration, ATP is a product of photosynthesis
D
Oxygen is a reactant of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is a product
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.

Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen is a product of cellular respiration; carbon dioxide is a product of photosynthesis. Correct Answer Oxidation is the loss of electrons; reduction is the gain of electrons. During cellular respiration, electrons move through a series of electron acceptor molecules.

Detailed explanation-3: -Yes. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts, whereas cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Photosynthesis makes glucose and oxygen, which are then used as the starting products for cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-4: -Oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis and, correspondingly, carbon dioxide the byproduct of respiration.
