Explanation / Answer

Ans-1

Photosynthesis is anabolic reaction, which produce food in form of glucose in plant by utilising CO2 and H2O by capturing light energy while cellular respiration is catabolic process taking places in each cell of living organism which involve oxidation of food in form of glucose into energy which are utilised by living organism.

Ans-2

Energy released in cellular respiration is captured in form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

Ans-3

Pyruvate is produced from glucose by glycolysis which are converted back into glucose by gluconeogenesis or to fatty acid with acetyl coenzyme. Pyruvate can be used to construct amino acid alanine and converted into lactic acid and ethanol by fermentation.

Pyruvate supply energy to cells via citric acid cycle or krebs cycle as aerobic respiration.

Ans-4

Conversion of CO2 and H2O into organic compound via capturing of light energy is called photosynthesis
