The Carbon Cycle is a complex series of processes through which all of the carbon atoms in existence rotate. As both photosynthesis and cellular respiration use carbon atoms in their reactions (6 CO2 + 6 H2O (+ light energy) C6 H12 O6 + 6 O2 and C6 H12 O6 + 6 O2 6 CO2 + 6 H2O, respectively) both play a fundamental role in the carbon cycle.

∙ 12y agoPhotosynthesis and respiration are related to carbon reactions because without carbon reactions, the lifeforms that go through photosynthesis (plants) and respiration (other living things) wouldn't be alive. Carbon is needed for all life forms. Also, photosynthesis and respiration need each other, so if carbon reaction don't happen, then one of the two doesn't exist. If one of the two doesn't exist, the other one doesn't either.

What is the process by which plants use sunlight and carbon dioxide and water to produce carbohydrates and oxygen?
Photosynthesis
During what process do plants and other organisms take in carbon dioxide?
Green plants take in carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and give out oxygen. While respiration, all living organisms take in oxygen and carbon dioxide and then give out carbon dioxide.
What two things must be taken in by a plant for photosynthesis?
The two things that a plant takes in for photosynthesis are : light and carbon dioxide.
How does photosynthesis affect the carbon dioxide balance of the atmosphere?
One of the key elements in photosynthesis, is carbon dioxide. As we need food, so do plants. Plants do this by taking neutriance water, the suns energy and carbon dioxide to create a substance called glucose. This reduces the amount of carbon in the air, and in the process releases oxygen for us to breathe.
What is the raw material of photosynthesis?
You might mean the reactants, the reactants for photosynthesis are 6CO2 + 6H2O+ light energy. The products from these reactants are Oxygen, Glucose. Photosynthesis: 6CO2+6H2O+light energy--->6O2+C6H12O6.
Is the carbon cycle closely related to?
The carbon cycle is closely related to photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which carbon is exchanged from the atmosphere (in the form of CO2) into the biosphere (in the form of glucose).
Which Life function is photosynthesis related?
oxygen carbon dioside
How is photosynthesis related to carbohydrates?
plants need carbon dioxide to photosynthesize.
The carbon cycle works in conjunction with what?
The carbon cycle is closely related to photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which carbon is exchanged from the atmosphere (in the form of CO2) into the biosphere (in the form of glucose).
How is solar energy related to the carbon cycle?
it provides the energy for photosynthesis, a major factor in the carbon cycle
How are respiration and photosynthesis related to each other?
Well they are both related because they both have to do something with energy, oxygen, and carbon dioxide.
How is carbon used in photosynthesis?
Carbon is used in photosynthesis as part of carbon dioxide, which is one of the reactants needed in photosynthesis. Without carbon, this process cannot occur.
Photosynthesis is a part of the carbon cycle the product of photosynthesis is?
carbon dioxide
What does photosynthesis transform elemental carbon into?
Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide into oxygen.
What gas may be required for photosynthesis?
photosynthesis :)
What do plants remove from the air during photosynthesis?
Plants remove carbon dioxide during photosynthesis!
Does carbon pass through photosynthesis?
Yes the Carbon cycle and Photosynthesis are inextricably connected.
