The opposite is cellular respiration, more specifically aerobic respiration. This process uses oxidation to release the energy stored in carbohydrates.

What is the opposite process of respiration?
photosynthesis
What is the opposite process is of cellular respiration?
photosynthesis
What chemical process may be described as the opposite of respiration?
Photosynthesis is considered as the opposite of respiration.
Cellular respiration is the opposite of what other cellular process?
photosynthesis
What process which is the opposite of photosynthesis enables plants to use the energy in food?
Respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis, and organisms use it to release the energy stored in food.
What process is equal to the rate of photosynthesis?
Respiration is opposite to the photosynthesis. It use O2 gas to burn glucose.
What biochemical process is the opposite of photosynthesis?
respiration
Why are cellular respirstion and photosynthesis opposite processes?
Well the big indicator is that the reactants of the photosynthesis process is the products of the respiration process. Also, one is an endothermic reaction and one is an exothermic
Is photosynthesis the opposite of respiration?
Yes. respiration is the opposite reaction of photosynthesis.
Why is the process that occurs in the motohomdria considered to be the opposite of the process that occurs in the chloroplasts?
Mitochondria= respiration-energy+o2 Chloroplasts=photosynthesis-food - energy
Why is the process that takes place in a mitochandrian often described as being the opposite of the process that takes place in a chloroplast?
I'm not sure if it's accurate to say that the process that takes place in the mitochondria is in fact the opposite of what takes place in the chloroplast. Rather, I would say that the biochemical process of cellular respiration (which partially takes place in the mitochondria) is the opposite of the biochemical process of photosynthesis (which does take place in the chloroplast). In cellular respiration, oxygen is used to breakdown carbohydrates for energy and carbon dioxide is released as a byproduct. In photosynthesis the energy of sunlight is absorbed by the synthesis of carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen is released as a byproduct. Thus cellular respiration and photosynthesis can be described as opposite processes. However, the process of cellular respiration does not occur exclusively in the mitochondria but occurs in part in the cytoplasm, so I think it's more accurate to say that cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis than mitochondria have the opposite function of chloroplasts.
What process balances photosynthesis to maintain the law of conversation of mass and energy in living systems?
cellular respiration. Its bssically the exact opposite of photosynthesis so it basically counters it and balances it out
