Photosynthesis/Cellular Respiration and Energy Conversion

Competency C1. Compare and describe agricultural plants based on properties, functions, and physiological needs.
 
Competency D4. Demonstrate knowledge of biochemical and cellular processes as they relate to AFNR systems.
 

Description

Photosynthesis is the process by which energy is converted to chemical energy in plant cells.  In cellular respiration plants use the chemical energy stored during photosynthesis in basic life processes. During both photosynthesis and cellular respiration, energy is converted. Plant management also relies on light-dependent and light-independent reactions of photosynthesis.
