Definition of Prose. Prose is a communicative style that sounds natural and uses grammatical structure. Prose is the opposite of verse, or poetry, which employs a rhythmic structure that does not mimic ordinary speech.
Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the biochemical process that converts the energy of sunlight into organic compounds using carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide (CO 2) reacts with water (H 2 O) in the presence of sunlight to form glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6) and oxygen (O 2).
Photosynthesis uses water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to create glucose molecules, and releases oxygen as a by-product. Cellular respiration uses glucose molecules and oxygen to produce ATP molecules and carbon dioxide as the by-product. Photosynthesis takes place only when there is sunlight. Cellular respiration occurs at all times. Photosynthesis involves conversion of one type of energy into another: light energy into chemical energy. Cellular respiration involves using that chemical energy and breaking it down to release energy.
