In the process of photosynthesis, plant cells take in water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) and release oxygen (O2). How is this different from what takes place in the process of aerobic respiration?

Question

A.
In aerobic respiration, cells take in O2 and produce CO2, H2O, and ATP.
B.
In aerobic respiration, O2 is inhaled and CO2 and H2O are exhaled.
C.
In aerobic respiration, cells use ATP to convert insulin into glucose and CO2.
D.
In aerobic respiration, mitochondria produce CO2 and ATP without using O2.

Answer 1

A. In aerobic respiration, cells take in O2 and produce CO2, H2O, and ATP.
