Detailed explanation-1: -Respiration and Photosynthesis are almostopposite processes because photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while respiration puts back carbon dioxide. Cellular respiration uses oxygen and has it’s waste product of carbon dioxide (CO2).
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The reaction of Photosynthesis is written below. Thus, from the given above reactions it can be said that respiration is the reverse reaction of photosynthesis reaction.
Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hence, respiration is said to be the reverse of photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-5: -On a simplified level, photosynthesis and cellular respiration are opposite reactions of each other. In photosynthesis, solar energy is harvested as chemical energy in a process that converts water and carbon dioxide to glucose. Oxygen is released as a byproduct.
