Learning Objective
I can describe how cells use cellular respiration to release energy from glucose.
- 1
Photosynthesis is how plants make their own food using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water.
- 2
Cellular respiration happens in the mitochondria of cells, using glucose and oxygen to release energy.
- 3
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are interconnected; photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose that cellular respiration uses to produce carbon dioxide and water.
