A by-product of photosynthesis which is necessary for respiration is?

Respiration is the reverse process of photosynthesis.Respiration:C6H12O6 + H2O --> CO2 + H2OPhotosynthesis:CO2 + H2O --> C6H12O6 + H2OTherefore, both products of photosynthesis are needed for respiration to occur.


Which molecules involved in photosynthesis and respiration contain carbon?

Carbon dioxide in cellular respiration CO2 And in photosynthesis Oxygen


How does photosynthesis and cellular respiration form a cycle?

The two chemical reactions essentially form a cycle, in that the products of one reaction fuel the other. CO2 and H2O released from cellular respiration reenter the atmosphere and are recycled by photosynthetic organisms, which in turn produce the sugars and oxygen needed for respiration to occur once more.

How are Photosynthesis and Cell Respiration linked?

Photosynthesis takes the energy from sunlight and uses it to put together large sugar molecules from the raw ingredients CO2 and H2O. Cellular respiration occurs when organisms break down large sugar molecules to use the energy to do work and release the waste products CO2 and H2O


Is oxygen and energy released during cellular respiration?

No, oxygen is released in photosynthesis; Carbon dioxide is released in cellular respiration. Here is the formula for both C6H12O6(sugar)+ O2(oxygen)→ CO2(carbon dioxide)+ H2O + Energy - respiration CO2 + H2O + Energy(light) → C6H12O6 + O2 - photosynthesis As you can see they are opposites.

Relationship between two the products of photosynthesis and the reactants in cellular respiration?

The relationship is when the cellular respiration takes CO2 through the plants system it helps bring what is needed for photosynthesis to occur.


What by product of respiration do plants use in photosynthesis?

CO2 is liberated from respiration. This is used in photosynthesis.


Is making glucose from CO2 photosynthesis or respiration?

The making of glucose from CO2 using sunlight is called photosynthesis. The breaking down of glucose and release of CO2 is respiration.


How are cell respiration and photosynthesis connected?

cell respiration consumes oxygen and sugars and produces CO2, photosynthesis consumes CO2 and produces oxygen and sugars


What 2 processess that occur in plants help move carbon and oxygen though an ecosystem?

photosynthesis and respiration. Photosynthesis produces oxygen and take up carbon, while respiration in plant mitochondria takes up oxygen and produce carbon (meaning CO2 from metabolism of sugars etc; CO2 is not produced by respiration but it is very closely linked to CO2 production.)


What is the end productbof photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Photosynthesis yeilds carbohydrate and O2.Respiration yeild ATP and CO2.


Can you reverse photosynthesis and get respiration in cells?

Respiration and photosynthesis are two seoarate processes, so reversing photosynthesis would not give you respiration. However the two processes are in some ways the reverse of each other. Photosynthesis uses CO2 and produces O2. Respiration uses O2 and produces CO2.


What is the prossess of making food from sunlight?

It is called photosynthesis. It is the CO2 reduction into glucose


How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration opposite processes?

Photosynthesis: CO2 + H2O --> C6H12O6 + O2 Cellular Respiration: C6H12O6 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O reactants and products are switched


Does photosynthesis and respiration both produce carbon dioxide?

It is utilized in photosynthesis. CO2 is released in respiration


How do processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration work together?

Photosynthesis provides glucose and oxygen in order for cellular respiration to occur.
