reverse photosynthesis and get respiration

[yamania]

hi everyone,

could you answer me this question, please

If cellular respiration and photosynthesis are the same chemical reaction, just going in different directions, can you reverse photosynthesis and get respiration in cells? Why or why not?

thank you..

[JackBean]

if you reverse photosynthesis, will you synthesize ATP or hydrolyze?

[yamania]

I did not understand you,

can you tell me waht do you mean? and if you have an answer for my question .. write it pleasr

[mith]

No because unlike an LED, you can't make the photosythetic machinery emit light.

[yamania]

thank you,

I want more explanation about this process.

[mith]

search on the internet and do some reading. no one is going to spoon feed you.

[yamania]

thank you for your reactions

lol

@yamania
mith was a little harsh wasnt he? but he did the right thing
please think a little
think about how can the same enzyme be used
how can you get light from respiration (as mith said)
think how mitochondrias work ( the thylakloid membranes and ETC's and then the chemeoosmosis) and compare that with photosystem...
an abvious answer it is
a big NO... and the reasons you can get even by thinking a little
good luck thinking

thhough if you still need help and dont get it come back i will help
