Which of the following is a characteristic shared by cellular respiration and photosynthesis?

A) Both photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in plant cells.
B) Both processes produce ATP by chemiosmosis.
C) Both processes use an electron transport chain located in membranes of organelles.
D) One or more electron carriers are used in both processes.
E) All of the answers are characteristics shared by photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Photosynthesis

The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water.

Electron Transport Chain

A series of complexes that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox reactions, and couples this electron transfer with the transfer of protons across a membrane.

  • Understand the principle that photosynthesis and cellular respiration serve as reciprocal processes, concerned with the conversion and usage of energy.

Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
All the options listed are characteristics shared by both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They occur in plant cells, involve ATP production through chemiosmosis, use electron transport chains located in organelle membranes, and involve electron carriers.
