They are dependent. Photosynthesis relies on respiration and vice versa.
Evidence is the two formulas. Photosynthesis: 6CO2+6H2O+Energy = C6H12O6+6O2
CP: C6H12O6+6O2 = 6CO2+6H2O
Photosynthesis is crucial to the way earth allows organisms to live because the plants that undergo photosynthesis release oxygen into the air which allows tree's to grow and cellular respiration to occur. They also gain ATP or energy from the sun's light which provides secondary consumers or herbivores energy when preyed upon. Cellular respiration is important and vital to earth simply because this is the way all organisms breathe. Cellular respiration goes through 3 steps. Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, and Electron Transport Chain
Respiration produce energy for survival. Photosynthesis produce glucose needed for respiration.
Oxygen is an important by-product of photosynthesis. It is important because it is utilized in aerobic cellular respiration.
Yes, plants do use energy to carry out cellular respiration, but this is only during investment stages. There is a net increase of energy through the process of cellular respiration, as it is the same process that occurs in all other eukaryotic life.
An autotroph is an organism that can make it's own food through the process of Photosynthesis, such as plants and fungi. This process produces Oxygen, which is needed for Cellular Respiration to take place. So, the answer is Photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is the main process on Earth that traps energy in food molecules. Cellular respiration breaks the bonds in the food molecules to put energy into a form that the cells can use directly. Three differences: 1. Photosynthesis requires water and carbon dioxide; respiration requires glucose and oxygen. 2. Photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose; respiration produces carbon dioxide and water. 3. Photosynthesis builds glucose to store energy; respiration breaks glucose to release energy. 4. Photosynthesis happens in the chloroplasts; respiration happens in the mitochondria. 5. Only autotrophs carry on photosynthesis; all living things carry on respiration.
Respiration supplies energy for organisms on Earth. Respiration can either be photosynthesis in plants and fungi or cellular respiration in animals.

Photosynthesis captures light energy from the Sun and stores it in the bonds of glucose, which is then used during cellular respiration to drive the formation of ATP in all plants and animals.

without cellular respiration we would not be able to stay active or healthy.
Photosynthesis is arguably the most important chemical process in biology because it converts light energy into usable chemical energy for life on Earth. It also produces O2 (oxygen) gas which is critical in cellular respiration. With the exception of a few species, life on Earth depends on photosynthesis.
Yes, plants carry out aerobic cellular respiration to get energy from food just like we do. So when people say that oxygen is a waste product of photosynthesis they are incorrect. Plants need oxygen just like other organisms for aerobic respiration. It's just fortunate for the rest of the life forms on Earth that plants produce more oxygen than they need.
They both show how living things on Earth are connected
Photosynthesis is the process by which organisms that contain the pigment chlorophyll convert light energy into chemical energy which can be stored in the molecular bonds of organic molecules (e.g., sugars). Photosynthesis powers almost all trophic chains and food webs on the Earth. The net process of photosynthesis is described by the following equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2
