all right, so we're gonna compare aerobic respiration and photosynthesis in order into this question. It says that animals use aerobic respiration to make a teepee, and it says that plants do not do this. Instead, they make all their 80 p through photosynthesis. And so the question is, Is that true? Well, in a word, answer that we need to know what is the equation for photo sentences, what does what his photo sentences use and what does it produce? And so photosynthesis is what's used by plants where they take carbon dioxide CO two and they take water and they take light sunlight, and they use that to make glucose. And oxygen is a teepee anywhere in this equation. Indeed, it is not so. The reason for that is because plants, like animals, also use what will see the term they use. They also use aerobic respiration. So this is for plants and animals. They both used aerobic respiration to make a teepee. No animals have to get their glucose by eating other animals, but plants can make their own glucose and then use that to make a teepee. And so the statement that says that animals make their 80 p through aerobic respiration. But plants make their 80 p through fitness through photosynthesis is false. Hopefully, that makes sense.
