Question

Cellular respiration is related to ______ as __________ is related to chloroplasts.

Answer 1

Answer:

Cellular respiration is related to mitochondria as photosynthesis is related to chloroplasts.

Explanation:

What is cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration is defined as the oxidative processes that occur in the cell to release the energy (in the form of ATP) present in the substrates (glucose, amino acids, fatty acids, etc.)

The major seat of cellular respiration in mitochondria.

Three basic processes are involved during cellular respiration:

1. Glycolysis
2. Kreb's cycle or TCA cycle
3. ETS or electron transport chain

Glycolysis is the sole process that occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
Kreb's cycle and ETS occur simultaneously in the mitochondria.

What is photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make food (organic matter) from inorganic sources like sunlight, gases (CO₂), and water.
It can also be defined as the process by which solar energy is converted into chemical energy.

The seat of photosynthesis are the chloroplasts which contain chlorophyll pigment which helps to harness the sunlight.
