Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How are the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration different?
A
cellular respiration uses glucose to make energy for the plant
B
photosynthesis creates glucose for the plant
C
cellular respiration takes place in mitochondria while photosynthesis takes place in chloroplast
D
All of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Differentiate between photosynthesis and respiration. In photosynthesis, water, light energy, and carbon dioxide are the reactants that produce Glucose and oxygen. Alternatively, in cellular respiration, oxygen and Glucose react to produce water and carbon dioxide.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Complete answer: 3)Cellular respiration involves the production of energy by breakdown of glucose whereas breathing involves taking in oxygen and removing carbon dioxide from the body and there is no production of energy in breathing like that of cellular respiration.
