Question

1. how is cellular respiration related to photosynthesis? a) both break down glucose for energy b) both build glucose to store energy from the sun c) both reactions release carbon dioxide d) photosynthesis produces glucose using energy from the sun while cell respiration breaks down glucose to release energy. e) photosynthesis produces oxygen from glucose. 44) the burning of fossil fuels is a chemical reaction called combustion. when a fossil fuel is combusted, carbon dioxide and water are released. this is most similar to which reaction? a) cellular respiration b) photosynthesis c) transpiration d) fixation e) leaching 45) which biogeochemical cycle does not have an atmospheric component? a) the phosphorus cycle b) the hydrologic cycle c) the nitrogen cycle d) the carbon cycle e) the sulfur cycle

Explanation:

1. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to release energy, while photosynthesis builds glucose using energy from the sun. So the answer is that one breaks down glucose and the other builds it.
2. Cellular respiration is a process where glucose is broken - down to release energy and carbon dioxide and water are released as by - products. Combustion of fossil fuels is similar as it releases energy and carbon dioxide and water.
3. The phosphorus cycle does not have a significant atmospheric component compared to the carbon, nitrogen, hydrologic, and sulfur cycles. Phosphorus is mainly found in rocks, soil, and water in non - gaseous forms.

Answer:

1. A. both break down glucose for energy, B. both build glucose to store energy from the sun
2. A. cellular respiration
3. A. the phosphorus cycle
