How are chemical processes of photosynthesis similar to the chemical processes of cellular respiration?

Photosynthesis
6 (H2 O) + 6 (C O2) -> C6 H12 O6+ 6(O2)
Respiration
C6 H12 O6+ 8(O2) -> 6 (H2 O2) + 6 (C O2)
All the reactants and products are made of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen,
(generally the respiration process is shown producing water instead of hydrogen peroxide, because the hydrogen peroxide breaks up into oxygen and water with the help of enzymes.)

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. :)
How is each compound used in a chemical reaction with cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
How is each compound used in a chemical reaction with cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
What is light energy and what does it do for cellular respiration?
Light energy does not affect respiration, but it is needed for photosynthesis, which in plants creates the chemical compounds (carbohydrates) that are oxidized in cellular respiration.
What kind of energy do the photosynthesis and cellular respiration have?
Energy is stored as chemical energy. This energy is in chemical bonds
Can cellular respiration be described as the conversion of the energy?
if u mean "celular respiration", then the answer probably is - chemical energy to heat energy....
Which of these is naturally occurring processes is a chemical change?
Two common examples are photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

What is the chemical reaction that reverses photosynthesis?
Cellular Respiration reverses photosynthesis.
What cellular metabolic processes occurs in all living things?
There cellular metabolic processes that occur in all living things refers to all chemical reactions in the cells. Cellular respiration is one such process.
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.
What is the process that does the opposite to photosynthesis?
Cellular respiration, because it releases the energy stored in carbon bonds by photosynthesis, and recombines carbon into carbon dioxide.
Why do you need chemical reactions?
Chemical reactions occur in respiration, photosynthesis, and more life processes. Respiration and photosynthesis are both essential for life to exist.
How is cellular resperation related to photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis uses light water and carbon dioxide to produce glucose. The glucose produced is then used, with oxygen, in cellular respiration to produce ATP. Chemical Equations Photosynthesis 6CO2+6H2O ------> C6H12O6+6O2 Cellular Respiration C6H12O6+6O2 ------> 6CO2+6H2O+38 ATP NOTE *Plants use photosynthesis and cellular respiration. *Animals just use the glucose they obtain from food to perform cellular respiration. *This is the formula for aerobic cellular respiration not anaerobic which doesn't use oxygen and produces lactic acid in humans.
What is light energy and what does it do for cellular respiration?
Light energy does not affect respiration, but it is needed for photosynthesis, which in plants creates the chemical compounds (carbohydrates) that are oxidized in cellular respiration.
What chemical reactions take place in your everyday lives?
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis.
What kind of energy do the photosynthesis and cellular respiration have?
Energy is stored as chemical energy. This energy is in chemical bonds
