Comparing Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration

Overview comparing photosynthesis & cellular respiration

1. Comparing Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration

2. Prokaryotes Eukaryote Pro = first Considered more primitive Does not have organelles No intercellular membranes Basic Cell Types Eu = new Considered more advanced Has organelles Has intercellular membranes

3. Basic Cell Types

4. Prokaryotes Eukaryote Pigments, like chlorophyll, in cytoplasm Location • Photosynthesis Chloroplast’s pigments

5. Prokaryote Eukaryotes Cytoplasm (or on the inner surfaces of the cells) Mitochondria Location • Aerobic Respiration

6. Light (Dependent) Reactions Light Independent Reactions Requires light No need for light When • Photosynthesis

7. When • Cellular Respiration All the time

8. CO 2 H 2 O Reactants (Input) • Photosynthesis

9. O 2 C 6 H 12 O 6 Reactants (Input) • Cellular Respiration

10. C 6 H 12 O 2 O 2 Products (Output ) • Photosynthesis

11. CO 2 H 2 O Products (Output ) • Aerobic Respiration

12. Photosynthesis Respiration Light energy Chemical Bonds usually glucose C 6 H 12 O 6 Energy Sources

13. Photosynthesis Respiration Energy stored in glucose’s chemical bonds. Energy released from glucose chemical bonds. Energy Results

14. Glucose • 5-Carbon Ring • Monosaccharide (Simple Sugar)
