Differences between Respiration and Photosynthesis

The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between respiration and photosynthesis. Respiration: 1. It takes place in all the living cells of plant. 2. This catabolic process continues throughout the day and night. 3. Utilizes oxygen and carbohydrates. 4. The end products of respiration are carbon dioxide and water. 5. The energy released from carbohydrates and other respiratory [...]

Differences between Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration | Plants

The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Aerobic Respiration: 1. It occurs in majority of organisms. 2. Oxygen is used. 3. It always releases CO2. 4. It generated water. 5. It releases entire energy available in glucose as it is fully oxidized. 6. Aerobic respiration involves five principal steps: glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, TCA [...]

Differences between Glycolysis and Krebs’ Cycle | Plants

The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between Glycolysis and Krebs' Cycle. Glycolysis: 1. Site of glycolysis is the cytoplasm. 2. It is a linear pathway of metabolic reactions. 3. This is first stage of respiration in which glucose is broken down to the level of pyruvate (Pyruvic acid). 4. Glycolysis is common to both aerobic as well [...]
