Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The raw materials of photosynthesis are the same as the products of cellular respiration.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis makes glucose and oxygen, which are then used as the starting products for cellular respiration. Cellular respiration makes carbon dioxide and water (and ATP), which are the starting products (together with sunlight) for photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose and oxygen. Water and CO2.

Detailed explanation-3: -This statement is false. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are complementary processes; photosynthesis makes glucose using energy in sunlight, and cellular respiration then breaks down glucose to release energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Both are similar reactions that occur in a specific manner. In the process of respiration, oxygen and glucose yield water and carbon dioxide, while carbon dioxide and water yield glucose and oxygen during the process of photosynthesis.
