Comparison Flashcards
1
Q
Dependence
A
Photosynthesis produces oxygen and sugar, which are the reactants for C.R
The waste products in C.R (water and CO2) are the reactants for photo
2
Q
Similarities in process
A
Both use an electron transfer chain, with ATP synthase complex, to generate ATP by chemiosmosis
Use and regenerate carrier molecules
3
Q
Similarities in structures
A
Chloroplasts and mitochondria both have inner folded membrane that create separated fluid-filled spaces that allow proton gradient to be established
Both possess their own unique DNA and replicate independently of cell division
