Jarrick is observing a single-celled alga and knows that it undergoes photosynthesis and respiration. Which question could the student ask to find out how it can do both processes?

Answer 1

A suitable question Jarrick could ask to understand how the single-celled alga can perform both photosynthesis and respiration is:

"What are the specific cellular structures and biochemical pathways that allow the alga to convert light energy into chemical energy during photosynthesis, and how does it utilize that energy for respiration?"

This question addresses the mechanisms involved in both processes and encourages exploration of the alga's cellular functions.
