Summary Introduction

To review:

The regulation of aerobic respiration and the way in which photosynthesis suppresses mitochondria respiration in plants.

Introduction:

Cytoplasmic ATP (adenosine triphosphate):ADP and NADH:NAD+ ratios rise on illumination. Transportation of DHAP (dihydrogen ammonium phosphate) from the stroma to cytoplasm leads to conversion of DHAP into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, and further into glycerate-1,3-bisphosphate. The reverse of this reaction occurs in cytoplasm and chloroplast. This shuttle in reaction results in a decrease in the activity of mitochondrial respiration.

Aerobic respiration is a process in which plants use environmental oxygen and carbohydrate to produce energy. This is an antiphotosynthesis pathway and takes placeusually when photosynthesis does not occur. Aerobic respiration is a combination of mainly threepathways: glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain (ETC). Also, lipid and protein synthesis play a role in this.
