Study Notes
Photosynthesis and Respiration
- The primary function of photosynthesis in plants is to produce glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water, releasing energy that is stored in the bonds of glucose.
Breakdown of Organic Substances
- The process that involves the breakdown of complex organic substances into simpler ones is catabolism.
Excretory System
- The excretory system is responsible for the removal of waste products from the body.
Respiration
- The primary function of respiration in living organisms is to generate energy by converting glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts.
