Question

test your knowledge
photosynthesis and cellular respiration take place in the cell. where does each process take place?
the lysosome is the photosynthetic organelle, and the mitochondria is where cellular respiration occurs
photosynthesis takes place in the mitochondria, and cellular respiration takes place in the chloroplast
the vacuole is where both photosynthesis and cellular respiration take place
photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast, and cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria

Explanation:

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts where light - energy is converted into chemical energy. Cellular respiration occurs in mitochondria where glucose is broken down to release energy. Lysosomes are for digestion, not photosynthesis. The vacuole is mainly for storage and maintaining cell turgor, not for these processes.

Answer:

Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast, and cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria
