- Can I please sleep in the tree house?
- No, it can be dangerous!
- How?!
- Trees create their own food. Photosynthesis is a way to get food, but it needs sunlight. Considering, you want to sleep here at night sunlight can't be used and cellular respiration would happen. Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide.
- Like breathing?
- No, it's cellular respiration. There are two types, Aerobic needs oxygen and Anaerobic does not need oxygen, but it might cause lactic acid.
- What is the process of cellular respiration?
- Cellular respiration is ametabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis,pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
- What is the process for photosynthesis?
- The light-dependent cycle creates ATP and NADPH by using water and sunlight. The Calvin cycle creates ADP and NADP+ from CO2, ATP, and NADPH. It also creates sugar.
- So both of these are really important?
- Yes! Heterotrophs use cellular respiration, but not photosynthesis and autotrophs use both. Heterotrophs get food by eating other organisms and autotrophs can't.
