Question

1. directions

choose the correct answer for each row.
using the table below, read the description and select whether the description applies to photosynthesis or cellular respiration. select the correct answer in each row.
clear all
photosynthesis
cellular respiration
energy is released from carbon compounds
carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere
energy is stored in carbon compounds
carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere

Explanation:

• Photosynthesis: Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere (as it is a reactant in photosynthesis: \(6CO_2 + 6H_2O

ightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2\)) and energy is stored in carbon compounds (glucose is produced).

• Cellular respiration: Energy is released from carbon compounds (glucose is broken down: \(C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2

ightarrow6CO_2+6H_2O+\text{Energy}\)) and carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere.

Answer:

• Energy is released from carbon compounds: Cellular respiration
• Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere: Photosynthesis
• Energy is stored in carbon compounds: Photosynthesis
• Carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere: Cellular respiration
