Question

which of the following best explains what would happen to animal cells if plant cells did not perform photosynthesis?
a animal cells would not be able to produce oxygen
b animal cells would not be able to produce glucose
c animal cells would not be able to process energy from sunlight
d animal cells would not be able to produce energy in the form of atp

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process in which plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose and oxygen. If plant cells do not perform photosynthesis, there will be no production of oxygen. Animal cells do not have the ability to perform photosynthesis. They obtain energy (in the form of ATP) through cellular respiration (which can use glucose obtained from food). They do not produce glucose from sunlight (that's photosynthesis which plants do).

Answer:

A. Animal cells would not be able to produce oxygen
