How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration opposite in terms of oxygen?

The process of photosynthesis stores energy in the form of chemical bonds (in carbohydrates including glucose, or sugar) and in the process releases free oxygen by breaking down carbon dioxide. Cellular respiration absorbs free oxygen, to release energy stored in the chemical bonds of food. This oxidation creates carbon dioxide, completing the cycle of carbon through the biosystem.
(Some forms of respiration are anaerobic, not using oxygen, and break down carbohydrates in a different manner, releasing either carbon dioxide or methane. The net result is the same: removing energy from the carbohydrate bonds.)

Photosynthesis uses CO2 (carbon dioxide) gas, and has a byproduct or waste product of O2 gas (oxygen).

Photosynthesis
6 (CO2)+ 6 (H2O) -> C6H12O6 + 6(O2)
Cellular respiration (for glucose)
C6H12O6+ 6(O2) -> 6 (CO2) + 6 (H2O)

What product of photosynthesis is needed by both plants and other organisms for cellular respiration?
The products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen. Oxygen is used in cellular respiration.
The relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration is usually described as a cycle?
Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Cellular respiration puts it back. Photosynthesis releases oxygen into the atmosphere, and cellular respiration uses that oxygen to release energy from food.
The metabolism of glucose when oxygen is presented is called?
cellular respiration
How does the chemical equation for cellular respiration relate to that of photosynthesis?
Because the end products of photosynthesis (glucose and oxygen) are the requirement to start cellular respiration.
How do cellular respiration and photosynthesis relate to each other?
The products of photosynthesis are used as the reactants for cellular respiration, and vice versa. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) to create organic molecules and oxygen (O2). In turn, cellular respiration takes those two products (oxygen and organic molecules) to create carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O)
The cells of a redwood tree require oxygen for the process of?
Cellular Respiration
How are photsynthesis and cellular respiration opposite in terms of oxygen?
In photosynthesis, you're essentially taking CO2 and energy to make oxygen. In cellular respiration, you're taking oxygen to form CO2 and energy.
What product of photosynthesis is needed by both plants and other organisms for cellular respiration?
The products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen. Oxygen is used in cellular respiration.
How do the processed of photosynthesis and cellular respiration work together?
Photosynthesis provides glucose and oxygen in order for cellular respiration to occur.
How do the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration work togther?
Photosynthesis provides glucose and oxygen in order for cellular respiration to occur.
What do the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration form?
The Processes Of Photosynthesis And Cellular Respiration Form Carbon Dioxide-Oxygen Cycle
What is made in photosynthesis that is used in cellular respiration?
Oxygen.
How do cellular respiration take oxygen from the air?
photosynthesis
How does reaction for photosynthesis compare to the cellular respiration?
they are they same. the products of photosynthesis are oxygen and glucose and the reactants of cellular respiration are gluose and oxygen.
