Notice that the equation for cellular respiration is the direct opposite of photosynthesis: Cellular Respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6+ 6O.
The equation for photosynthesis and respiration are similar but in opposite direction in the sense that what is used in respiration is produced during photosynthesis and what is produced during respiration is again used in photosynthesis. It can be explained by the following equation:- 6CO2 + 6H2O = C6H12O6 + 6O2 (photosynthesis) C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O (Respiration)
The process that is the opposite of photosynthesis is cellular respiration. In cellular respiration, organisms break down glucose to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water. This process releases energy stored in glucose and is used by all living organisms to power their cellular functions.
The opposite of photosynthesis is cellular respiration. Photosynthesis stores up energy in the form of complex sugars while cellular respiration breaks down these sugars in order to harvest their energy. The fact that they are opposites are reflected in their chemical equations, as shown below. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy --> 6C6H12O6 + 6O2 Cellular respiration: 6C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 34ATP
in a way respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis. Because when you look at the formula for each of them one is the reverse of the other. However, photosynthesis is the process of changeing sunlight to energy and respiration is when a cell no longer needs a part of it, or that part gets too old. Say, for example a mitochondria isn't doing it's job, then the cell will break it down and use the remainder if the mitochondria for something else. That is respiration.
Photosynthesis and respiration are interconnected processes in living organisms. During photosynthesis, plants and some microorganisms convert sunlight into chemical energy, producing oxygen as a byproduct. In contrast, respiration involves the breakdown of organic molecules to release energy, using oxygen and producing carbon dioxide as a waste product. Together, these processes form a balance in the carbon cycle, with photosynthesis removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and respiration returning it.
Photosynthesis CO2 + H2O + Sunlight Cellular respiration O + Glucose Raw materials for these processes.
They are opposite to each other .
Cellular respiration. Their chemical equations are the reverse of each other.
Photosynthesis 6CO2 + 12 H2O = C6H12O6 + 6H2O + 6O2 CellulaarRespiration C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
It invoves in respiration. Specifically it is aerobic respiration

The equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration are related in that they are essentially reverse processes of each other. In photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. In cellular respiration, organisms break down glucose and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy. Essentially, the outputs of one process are the inputs of the other.
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. :)
The standard equations based on glucose in a redox reaction. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----------------------------------------- Cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O -----------------------------------------
respiration is but photosynthesis isn't.
Yes. respiration is the opposite reaction of photosynthesis.
