You probably mean the chemical equation for plant respiration. There are two kinds of respiration, so there are two different equations. 1) Aerobic respiration is respiration which uses oxygen: glucose + oxygen = water + carbon dioxide + ENERGY C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6H2O + 6CO2 + ENERGY Aerobic respiration is the same in animals and plants. 2) Anaerobic respiration is respiration without using oxygen. This is different in plants and animals. In plants: glucose = carbon dioxide + ethanol (alcohol) + ENERGY C6H12O6 = 2CO2 + 2C2H5OH + ENERGY In animals: glucose = lactic acid + ENERGY C6H12O6 = 2C3H6O3 + ENERGY See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_respiration http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermentation_%28biochemistry%29
first photosynthesis is needed to produce glucose and oxygen:
carbon dioxide + water = glucose + oxygen.
this glucose is then used for respiration (aerobic):
glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + ENERGY.
Aerobic respiration can be respresented most simplistically by: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 -> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O. Photosynthesis is most simplistically represented by: 6 CO2 + 6 H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6 O2.
The balanced equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + energy
photosynthesis eqn :- 6CO2 + 12H2O -----> C6H12O6 +6O2 Respiratory eqn :- C6H12O6 +6O2 -----> 6CO2 + 12H2O So, photosynthesis eqn = Respiration eqn
The overall equation of photosynthesis differs from the reverse of the overall equation of cellular respiration in that sunlight is not needed in the reverse of cellular respiration. Also, chlorophyll need not be present for the latter process.
Carbon dioxide and glucose is essential for photosynthesis to take place. The equation for photosynthesis; carbon dioxide + glucose = oxygen + water. This can be reversed for the respiration equation.
photosynthesisThe NET reaction is the reverse of photosynthesis but the reactions in between are differentPhotosynthesis_is_the_answer_to_your_question.
The chemical equations for the processes are opposites of each other. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is: solar energy + 6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2 The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy. The ONLY difference is that photosynthesis uses sunlight while cellular respiration produces energy in the form of ATP. :)
no
Because the end products of photosynthesis (glucose and oxygen) are the requirement to start cellular respiration.
photosynthesis eqn :- 6CO2 + 12H2O -----> C6H12O6 +6O2 Respiratory eqn :- C6H12O6 +6O2 -----> 6CO2 + 12H2O So, photosynthesis eqn = Respiration eqn
They both use the same things but photosynthesis's products are what respiration starts with like respirtion needs oxgyen and glucose or sugar and photosynthesis is what give the oxgyen and glucose (sugar).
The overall equation of photosynthesis differs from the reverse of the overall equation of cellular respiration in that sunlight is not needed in the reverse of cellular respiration. Also, chlorophyll need not be present for the latter process.
The equation for photosynthesis and respiration are similar but in opposite direction in the sense that what is used in respiration is produced during photosynthesis and what is produced during respiration is again used in photosynthesis. It can be explained by the following equation:- 6CO2 + 6H2O = C6H12O6 + 6O2 (photosynthesis) C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O (Respiration)
Because the end products of photosynthesis (glucose and oxygen) are the requirement to start cellular respiration.
This chemical equation, opposite to photosynthesis is:C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O
Carbon dioxide and glucose is essential for photosynthesis to take place. The equation for photosynthesis; carbon dioxide + glucose = oxygen + water. This can be reversed for the respiration equation.
Photosynthesis creates oxygen as a byproduct which we humans then inhale, and exhale carbon dioxide which is what the plants "inhale."
The standard equations based on glucose in a redox reaction. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----------------------------------------- Cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O -----------------------------------------
C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O It is just the opposite of the photosynthesis equation. Hope this helps :)
