The first step of photosynthesis is the Response area. The second step of photosynthesis is called the Response area . Once glucose is created from sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide, the plant can then perform cellular respiration to obtain ATP (energy) needed to live. The steps of cellular respiration are (IN ORDER) Response area , Response area , and Response area .
The steps of cellular respiration in order are glycolysis, the Krebs cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle), and oxidative phosphorylation (or electron transport chain).
I apologize, but there seems to be some confusion in the information provided. Photosynthesis consists of two main steps: the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (also known as the Calvin cycle). Cellular respiration, on the other hand, occurs in three main steps: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Here's a revised breakdown:
Photosynthesis:
1. Light-dependent reactions: These occur in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts. During this step, light energy is captured and converted into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. Oxygen is also released as a byproduct.
2. Light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle): These occur in the stroma of the chloroplasts. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is utilized to synthesize glucose (C6H12O6) with the help of ATP and NADPH generated in the light-dependent reactions.
Cellular Respiration:
1. Glycolysis: This happens in the cytoplasm and involves the breakdown of glucose molecules into two molecules of pyruvate. ATP and NADH are also produced during this step.
2. Krebs cycle (Citric acid cycle): This occurs in the mitochondria and involves the oxidation of pyruvate to generate ATP, NADH, and FADH2.
3. Oxidative phosphorylation: This step takes place in the inner mitochondrial membrane. NADH and FADH2 produced in previous steps donate their electrons to the electron transport chain, which results in the production of even more ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
I hope this clarifies the steps of photosynthesis and cellular respiration for you. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
To determine the missing steps of photosynthesis and cellular respiration, you can refer to the general understanding of these processes.
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of glucose. It consists of two main steps: the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions (also known as the Calvin cycle).
In the light-dependent reactions, light energy is captured by chlorophyll in the plants' chloroplasts, and water molecules are split, releasing oxygen and generating ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate).
In the light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle), the ATP and NADPH produced in the previous step are used to convert carbon dioxide into glucose. This phase does not directly require light but relies on the products generated in the light-dependent reactions.
Now let's move on to cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process by which organisms, including plants, break down glucose and other organic molecules to produce ATP, the primary source of energy for cellular activities. It occurs in three main stages: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle), and the electron transport chain.
During glycolysis, glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate, generating a small amount of ATP and NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). Then, in the citric acid cycle, the pyruvate is further broken down, releasing carbon dioxide, and generating more ATP, NADH, and FADH2 (flavin adenine dinucleotide). Finally, in the electron transport chain, the NADH and FADH2 molecules produced in the previous steps are used to generate a large amount of ATP through a series of reactions involving oxygen.
Given this overview, we can now fill in the missing steps you provided:
The first step of photosynthesis is the Light-Dependent Reactions.
The second step of photosynthesis is called the Light-Independent Reactions or the Calvin Cycle.
The steps of cellular respiration, in order, are:
- Glycolysis
- The Citric Acid Cycle or Krebs Cycle
- The Electron Transport Chain
Remember that while these explanations provide a general understanding, each step within these processes involves numerous biochemical reactions and intermediates.
