Detailed explanation-1: -Notice that the equation for cellular respiration is the direct opposite of photosynthesis: Cellular Respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6+ 6O.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Photosynthesis makes glucose which is used in cellular respiration for making ATP. The glucose is then transformed back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. It helps cells to release and store energy. It maintains the atmospheric balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen.
Detailed explanation-4: -Plants release oxygen which is a by-product of photosynthesis, and we breathe in oxygen so that our cells can carry out cellular respiration and generate ATP. Respiration and photosynthesis are biological reactions in the environment that complement each other.
Detailed explanation-5: -Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis are almost opposite processes because photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while cellular respiration puts back carbon dioxide. Cellular respiration uses oxygen and has it’s waste product of carbon dioxide (CO2).
