The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.

How are the word equations of photosynthesis and respiration similar?

The equation for photosynthesis and respiration are similar but in opposite direction in the sense that what is used in respiration is produced during photosynthesis and what is produced during respiration is again used in photosynthesis. It can be explained by the following equation:- 6CO2 + 6H2O = C6H12O6 + 6O2 (photosynthesis) C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O (Respiration)


What is the process that does the opposite to photosynthesis?

The process that is the opposite of photosynthesis is cellular respiration. In cellular respiration, organisms break down glucose to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water. This process releases energy stored in glucose and is used by all living organisms to power their cellular functions.


How are the equations for photosyntheis and cellular respiration related?

The equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related in that they are essentially reverse processes of each other. In photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. In cellular respiration, organisms break down glucose and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy. Essentially, the outputs of one process are the inputs of the other.


Is mitochondria in photosynthesis or respiration?

It invoves in respiration. Specifically it is aerobic respiration


How can photosynthesis and respiration be summarized into equations?

Notice that the equation for cellular respiration is the direct opposite of photosynthesis: Cellular Respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6+ 6O.


What statement is correct about photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

The chemical equations for the processes are opposites of each other. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is: solar energy + 6CO2 + 6H2O ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2 The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy. The ONLY difference is that photosynthesis uses sunlight while cellular respiration produces energy in the form of ATP. :)


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 -----------------------------------------


How do the equations of photosynthesis and cellular respiration compare?

To compare the equations for respiration an photosynthesis, you must first see what the equations are. Respiration- sugar + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + engergy photosynthesis- carbon dioxide + water = light energy = sugar+ oxygen The difference between these two equations are, they seem to be backwards from each other. So they are flipped around, see how respiration starts with sugar +oxygen and ends with carbon dioxide + water, but photosynthesis is the exact oposite. What is the same about the two is they have the same "ingredients". :) I hope this helped you to understand photosynthesis and respiration better. :) look below for the last answer that i improved by a lot. :) idk, how i am i sposed to no this, i learned this in scince class lst year.;(
