Fatty acids can be broken down and enter aerobic respiration at the level of glucose. Plants are able to carry on photosynthesis but they can not carry on respiration. Animals are able to carry on respiration but they can not carry on photosynthesis. Aerobic Respiration is a form of catabolism. A molecule of glucose contains more potential energy than a molecule of fat.
Plants are the only organisms which can perform photosynthesis.
C4 plants do not use the Calvin Benson cycle during photosynthesis. Please name and describe as fully as possilbe the mechanism by which these ATP's are produced. Compare this mechanism to that used during photosynthesis to make ATP s 2. Describe the main events which occur in the light phase and the main events which occur in the dark phase of photosynthesis. In class, we listed 3 main events for each phase.
