Photosynthesis in plants is the process of transforming radiant energy from the Sun into glucose. This process takes place in the chloroplasts within cells. Cellular respiration involves using the glucose from photosynthesis to make ATP, a form of energy used for a plant’s basic life processes. Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria. The first diagram shows the photosynthesis and cellular respiration cycles in plants. The second diagram shows the carbon cycle. Study both diagrams, and then answer the questions that follow. an illustration showing the process of photosynthesis and respiration in plants the carbon cycle Part A Question Use the information in the diagrams to draw a cycle model. Use the cycle model format shown here. Your cycle model should show how CO2 taken in by a plant can eventually cycle through all four spheres. You can choose any scenario you’d like, and you can even include other life forms in the cycle. But your cycle must come full circle. Your cycle can span a short period or a long period of time. Use as many steps as you need, but make sure all four spheres are identified in the cycle. Lines Shapes Fill: Line: Width: 2 pt
