Relationships between Photosynthesis & Respiration :)

Initial Theory : Both are dependent on each other in exchanging of gases.
Reasoning : Photosynthesis takes in carbon dioxide and gives out oxygen. Then ,the oxygen
produced will be taken in for respiration and gives out carbon dioxide for
photosynthesis .

A Better Theory : Both are dependent on each other in exchanging of gases and balancing each
other as well .

-->Why study photosynthesis?

  • Our quality of life and existence depends on it.
  • The impact done on humans & animals.
  • Control photosynthesis and enhance the production of food, fibre and energy.
  • Can be used for many purposes.

-->What is the importance of photosynthesis?

  • Photosynthesis plays a vital role in regulating the life cycle on earth.
  • The sunlight, water and the plants work together to supply the raw source of energy to us and help us breathe in oxygen for survival.
  • Life without photosynthesis will be impossible.

-->How will photosynthesis affect us?

  • It gives us air and helps us breathe.
  • Plants will not be able to grow thus messes up our ecosystem, resulting to death as we do not have enough oxygen and the sun will be of no use.
  • Maintains the amount of gases in the air.

  1. New Infomation : Plants take in Carbon Dioxide during photosynthesis , this will reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the air.By studying photosynthesis , we may be able to manipulate this process and reduce greenhouse gases
    Elaboration : The importance of photosynthesis and the reasons it will affect us because they are producers of the food chain , if there happen to be a mass decrease , our food source will decrease as well and very soon , herbivores(secondary) will perish , leading to carnivores(tertiary) , finally leading to humans.Oxygen is needed for human to respire and hence live , and it is a product of photosynthesis.

    Thanks for the new information :) It really comes in handy. The elaboration was good as well :D Thanks lots again. =)

    Hidayat, Hazim, Jeryl and Haryshan :
    As we all know, plants needs carbon dioxide, water and sunlight trapped by chlorophyll to carry out the process of photosynthesis. Hope this helps, and sorry for the later replies. :)
