Study Notes
Plant Respiration
- Stomata play a crucial role in plant respiration, allowing for the exchange of gases, specifically oxygen and carbon dioxide, between the plant and the atmosphere.
Site of Respiration
- The primary site of respiration in plants is the mitochondria, found in the cells of the plant.
Energy Currency
- The primary energy currency used in respiration in plants is ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
Energy Release
- During respiration in plants, glucose (C6H12O6) is broken down to release energy, which is then stored in the form of ATP.
Electron Transport Chain
- The final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain during plant respiration is oxygen (O2).
Organelle Involved
- The mitochondria is the organelle primarily involved in the process of respiration in plant cells.
