Analysis Questions 1. A common misconception is that plants perform photosynthesis INSTEAD of cellular
respiration. This is incorrect because plants carry out BOTH photosynthesis AND
Cellular respiration
Explain why plants need to use both process in order to survive,

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process whereby plant cells manufacture their energy source or food (glucose) in the presence of sunlight. Cellular respiration, on the other hand, is the process by which living cells release energy in form of ATP needed by their cells for cellular activities.

Living organisms eat or obtain take in food in order to obtain energy for their cellular upkeep. Plants are one of the only set of organisms that can produce their own food i.e. autotrophic and they do so via PHOTOSYNTHESIS. However, they need to undergo cellular respiration in order to breakdown the synthesized food to yield usable energy for their cells. These two processes in plants are direct metabolic opposite of one another.

Based on the explanation above, plants need to use both PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND CELLULAR RESPIRATION because the products of one yields reactant for the other. photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide released by cellular respiration while cellular respiration uses oxygen released by photosynthesis.

the core of the sun is so hot and there is so much pressure, nuclear fusion takes place, hydrogen is changed to helium. nuclear fusion creates heat and photons. when the heat reaches the earth it warms the molecules of the atmosphere, and they warm other molecules and so on.

step 1 ammonium can be absorbed by plants, but some is converted into nitrates which are better for plants to absorb. this is called nitrification. 2. step 2 the deer eats the plants and uses the nitrogen-containing proteins for cell growth. 3. step 3 bacteria in the soil conduct nitrogen fixation to convert nitrogen gas from the atmosphere into ammonium. 4. step 4 some of the nitrates are absorbed back into plants, but denitrification breaks down the nitrates into nitrogen gas released back into the atmosphere. 5. step 5 nitrogen is found in the urine, which gets broken down into ammonium through the process of ammonification. 6. step 6 plants absorb the ammonium and begin assimilation, the process to add the nitrogen to protein.
