Question

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? (1 point)

in aerobic respiration, cells use atp to convert insulin into glucose and co₂.

in aerobic respiration, o₂ is inhaled and co₂ and h₂o are exhaled.

in aerobic respiration, mitochondria produce co₂ and atp without using o₂.

in aerobic respiration, cells take in o₂ and produce co₂, h₂o, and atp.

Explanation:

Aerobic respiration is a process where cells use oxygen ($O_2$) to break down glucose and produce carbon - dioxide ($CO_2$), water ($H_2O$), and ATP. Photosynthesis takes in $H_2O$ and $CO_2$ and releases $O_2$, which is different from aerobic respiration's reactants and products.

Answer:

D. In aerobic respiration, cells take in $O_2$ and produce $CO_2$, $H_2O$, and ATP.
