They are basically reverse reactions of the other.
Photosynthesis
H2O + CO2 + Energy (light) --> Sugar + O2
Cellular Respiration
Sugar + O2 --> H2O + CO2 + Energy (ATP)

How are the equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration different?
The overall equation of photosynthesis differs from the reverse of the overall equation of cellular respiration in that sunlight is not needed in the reverse of cellular respiration. Also, chlorophyll need not be present for the latter process.
What is the end product of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
The overall products of respiration are carbon dioxide and water. The overall products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.
What’s the equation of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
The standard equations based on glucose in a redox reaction. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----------------------------------------- Cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O -----------------------------------------
List the reatants and products of photosynthesis and respiration?
The overall reactants of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water. The overall products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen. The overall reactants of aerobic respiration are glucose and oxygen. The overall products of aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide and water.
When is oxygen used in cellular respiration?
I. Cellular Respiration: breaking down sugar in the presence of oxygen (aerobic).Photosynthesis (you recall...) is the process by which CO2 and H2O are used to make sugars and starches.During Cellular Respiration, sugar is broken down to CO2 and H2O, and in the process, ATP is made that can then be used for cellular work.The overall reaction for cellular respiration: (does this reaction look familiar? Overall, it is the reverse reaction of photosynthesis, but chemically, the steps involved are very different.)C6H12O6 + 6O2 -------------------> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ~38 ATP
What is the overall chemical for cellular respiration?
I think its oxygen.
How are aerobic respiration and photosynthesis are related?
They can be thought of as the 'reverse' of each other (though their repective biochemical pathways are in no ways similar) and are the two halves of the carbon cycle. Respiration: Glucose + Oxygen -> Carbon dioxide + Water Photosynthesis: Carbon dioxide + Water -> Glucose +Oxygen
Is cellular respiration a negative or positive delta g?
Photosynthesis is a positive delta G as it produces more free energy than it uses. The overall result of the Gibbs equations shows that delta G is positive
What process have reactants of glucose and oxygen and water?
Answer this question… Cellular respiration
What is the chemical reaction fro cellular repiration?
The overall chemical reaction for aerobic cellular respiration is C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6H2O + 6CO2.
Is used as food and is produced as a waste in the overall process of cellular respiration.?
Glucose . . . Carbon Dioxide
What is the overall cellular respiration equation in words?
Glucose + Oxygen ---> Carbon dioxide + water + energy
