What releases h20 and CO cellular respiration or photosynthesis?

In cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to release CO2 and water (H2O) as byproducts. Photosynthesis, on the other hand, utilizes CO2 and water to produce glucose and release oxygen as a byproduct.


Is making glucose from CO2 photosynthesis?

No it is respirationYes,it is photosynthesis. CO2 is oxidized into glucose using water and light energy


Is photosynthesis responsible for atmospheric CO2?

Photosynthesis is responsible for lowering the levels of atmospheric CO2 since it is a requirement to make glucose. Cellular respiration produces CO2 as a by-product, so it is responsible for some atmospheric CO2.


For green plant cells which are the substances that result from cellular respiration that are used in photosynthesis?

In green plant cells, the substances produced during cellular respiration that are utilized in photosynthesis are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). During respiration, glucose is broken down to release energy, producing CO2 as a byproduct. This CO2 is then absorbed by the plant during photosynthesis, where it, along with water and sunlight, is converted into glucose and oxygen.


How is light important in photosynthesis and the production of glucose?

Glucose is a sugar molecule. Much like what glucose does for your body, plants metabolize glucose to create CO2 water and energy. respiration: H20+C6H12O6=>H20+CO2+ATP(energy)


Does photosynthesis and respiration both produce carbon dioxide?

No, they do not both produce carbon dioxide. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and glucose, while respiration uses oxygen to break down glucose and produce carbon dioxide as a byproduct.


What is the end productbof photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Photosynthesis yeilds carbohydrate and O2.Respiration yeild ATP and CO2.


What substances are produced in photosynthesis and respiration?

Which molecules involved in photosynthesis and respiration contain carbon?

In photosynthesis, molecules like glucose, fructose, and starch contain carbon. In respiration, molecules such as glucose, fatty acids, and amino acids also contain carbon.
