- Hey Mar? How do plants make food? And how do they turn that into energy?
- Well, Lindsay, it's a process called photosynthesis that plants use.
- All organisms use cellular respiration to turn food into usable energy, or ATP.
- See these flowers? Their reactants for them to create food are carbon dioxide, sun, and water.
- They then convert the carbon dioxide to oxygen, and create glucose. with water and energy.
-
- So Mar, i'm guessing the products of photosynthesis, glucose and oxygen, is the reactants of cellular respiration!
- Yes Lindsay! That's how the two processes are related. But even animals go through cellular respiration. They make glucose and need that to turn into energy!
- Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria for animals, and the chloroplast for plants!
- So the reactants, oxygen and glucose, turn into carbon dioxide, water, and energy!
- Thanks Mar!
