28. Which statement best explains why cellular respiration in plants and other organisms is dependent on photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is one of the final steps in cellular respiration,
Photosynthesis absorbs materials that are catalyzed during cellular respiration.
Photosynthesis absorbs excess energy produced by cellular respiration.
Photosynthesis provides the materials that fuel cellular respiration.

Photosynthesis provides the materials that fuel cellular respiration.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis, the process through which green plants convert light to chemical energy. The energy that is gotten from sunlight by green plants, some protistans, and bacteria is used to produce sugar which is then converted to ATP by cellular respiration which is regarded to as the fuel that living things use.

Therefore, the statement that best explains why cellular respiration in plants and other organisms is dependent on photosynthesis is that photosynthesis provides the materials that fuel cellular respiration.

1. (1.2kw)x(15/60hours) = .3kwh --> a

2. (5kw)x(90/60hours)x(8cents/kwh) = $0.60 --> d

3. microwave --> 1200 watts = (1.2kw)x(6/60hours) = .12kwh

coffee-maker --> 900 watts = (.9kw)x(10/60hours) = .15kwh

therefore, it requires more energy for the coffee-maker to do the same amount of work.

so the answer is a.
