The process of photosynthesis is essential in the carbon cycle. Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and produces/releases oxygen (O2) back into the atmosphere.

How does the rate of photosynthesis in area 1 compare to the rate of photosynthesis in area 2?

(1 point)
Responses

The rate of photosynthesis decreases with an increase in carbon dioxide; therefore, area 1 will have a lower rate of photosynthesis compared to area 2.
The rate of photosynthesis decreases with an increase in carbon dioxide; therefore, area 1 will have a lower rate of photosynthesis compared to area 2.

The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has no affect on the rate of photosynthesis; therefore, area 1 and area 2 will have the same rate of photosynthesis.

During the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration, energy is converted. The law of conservation of energy is observed. Which cell organelles are involved in converting energy from one form to another?(1 point)

During the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration, energy is converted. The law of conservation of energy is observed. The cell organelles involved in converting energy from one form to another are the chloroplasts (in photosynthesis) and mitochondria (in cellular respiration).

What is the correct response that Simon should give Jaylah?

Responses

The plant's ability to break down glucose sugar and produce the energy molecule of ATP would be affected because photosynthesis would not have a needed reactant to undergo all the chemical reactions.
