Photosynthesis is the opposite of cellular respiration, where glucose and other compounds are oxidized to produce carbon dioxide, water, and release chemical energy.
It uses energy from sunlight and carbon dioxide to produce water and oxygen.
However, the two processes take place through a different sequence of chemical reactions and in different cellular compartments.

What is the purpose of oxygen in photosynthesis?

Oxygen produced during photosynthesis is a byproduct of the light-dependent reactions. It is released into the atmosphere and is essential for the survival of most living organisms, as it is used in cellular respiration to generate ATP, the energy currency of cells.


Types of organism wherein the photosynthesis occurs?

Photosynthesis occurs in plants, algae, and some bacteria. These organisms contain chlorophyll, the pigment that captures sunlight for the process of photosynthesis. Through this process, they convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose, using sunlight as an energy source.

Is glycolysis part photosynthesis?

Glucose is the main basic energy storage molecule. It is also the basis for many other compounds, like the cell wall, and starch that is made during photosynthesis. The process of photosynthesis doesn't require glucose. Photosynthesis is the process of plants converting carbon dioxide from the air and water to usable energy (in the form of glucose), with oxygen as a waste product. The word equation for it is as follows: carbon dioxide + water -------------------------------------------> glucose + oxygen chlorophyll sunlight (6CO2+6H2O+light energy=C6H12O6+6O2) The words chlorophyll and sunlight are written underneath the equation because they are the conditions that are required for photosynthesis to take place. Energy is provided by the sun, and chlorophyll is the green chemical within the leaf where photosynthesis takes place. Photosynthesis takes place at its fastest during warm, sunny days when there is plenty of sunlight, presuming the soil is moist. Photosynthesis does not occur at night when there is no sunlight.


What type of energy transformation takes place during photosynthesis?

The transformation occurs using photosynthesis is radiant, because of the light a plant needs, then the light is digested by the plant. In other words digested means that the plant stores the light in its body like humans use the sun and food to get energy.
