RESPIRATION IN PLANTS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ and respiration processes are complementary to each other.
A
Photosynthesis
B
Aerobic respiration
C
Fermentation
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis makes glucose which is used in cellular respiration for making ATP. The glucose is then transformed back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. It helps cells to release and store energy. It maintains the atmospheric balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration and photosynthesis are complementary processes because the products of photosynthesis are the reactants for cellular respiration, and the products of cellular respiration are the reactants for photosynthesis. Cellular respiration is the process that cells use to make ATP.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are complementary because both depend on the inputs and outputs of both processes to continue. Photosynthesis requires CO2, which cellular respiration outputs, and cellular respiration needs oxygen which photosynthesis makes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hint: Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are complementary processes by which living things obtain required substances for their body. Both processes consume and create the same substances (water, glucose, oxygen, and carbon dioxide) but in different ways.
