It's the comment equivalent of the 'Lorem Ipsum' dummy text beloved of the printing and typesetting industry, when they need specimen words to illustrate how a piece of text would look: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua (it's not Latin, although it has roots in that language).
Something similar happens in plants. When the rate of respiration is more than the rate of photosynthesis, the biomolecules present in plants break down to compensate the reduced rate of photosynthesis. This results in loss of dry weight of the plant. Views Â· View Upvotes.
Describe 2 ways in which cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis makes glucose and uses ATP and CO2. Cellular respiration breaks down Glucose, makes ATP and gives off CO2. Explain what happens in the process of fermentation. During the process of fermentation, a partial breakdown of PYRUVIC ACID takes places that makes 2 ATP and ALCOHOL or LACTIC ACID.
