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.
