Which statement best describes the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

• Photosynthesis is an ENERGY-STORING process because it produces glucose, and respiration is an ENERGY-RELEASING process because it produces ATP.

• Photosynthesis is an ENERGY-RELEASING process because it produces glucose, and respiration is an ENERGY-STORING process because it produces ATP.

• Photosynthesis is an ENERGY-STORING process because it produces ATP and oxygen, and respiration is an ENERGY-RELEASING process because it produces carbon dioxide and water.

• Photosynthesis is an ENERGY-RELEASING process because it produces ATP and oxygen, and respiration is an ENERGY-STORING process because it produces carbon dioxide and water.

How does the body of a runner keep up with the demand for energy when cellular oxygen levels are low?

• through aerobic respiration in the plasma membrane

• through energy production in the mitochondria

• through anaerobic respiration in the cytoplasm

Which is the best explanation for how some organisms can maintain homeostasis using only anaerobic respiration?

• These are one-celled organisms with energy needs that can be met with only the energy released from glycolysis.

• These are one-celled organisms with energy needs that can be met with only the energy released by the Krebs cycle.

• These are one-celled organisms with energy needs that can be met with only the energy released during chemosynthesis.

• These are one-celled organisms with energy needs that can be met with only the energy released from the electron transport chain.
