Sun rays shine on a plant that can use that solar energy to photosynthesize glucose, and in the process creates oxygen and releases heat. Animals eat plants which in turn breakdown glucose into carbon dioxide and water, and capture the energy in glucose into ATP, (respiration) which cells can use for work like moving, molecular transport and synthesis of biomolecules.

Can Metabolism Be Compared to Photosynthesis?

The fundamental processes of life rely on energy transformation. While seemingly disparate, photosynthesis and metabolism, specifically cellular respiration, are intricately linked in a continuous cycle of energy production and consumption.…

How Do You Compare and Contrast Two Stories?

Comparing and contrasting two stories involves analyzing their similarities and differences across various elements. This process enhances critical thinking and deepens understanding. This article provides a practical guide with examples…
