The overall equation of photosynthesis differs from the reverse of the overall equation of cellular respiration in that sunlight is not needed in the reverse of cellular respiration. Also, chlorophyll need not be present for the latter process.
This is photosynthesis: Sunlight + 6CO2 + 6H2O ----> 6O2, C6H12O6 This is cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----> 6CO2, 6H2O, ATP
The reverse of photosynthesis is cellular respiration.
Cellular Respiration
Cellular respiration needs glucose. Glucose is produced by photosynthesis
Cellular respiration produces, the reactants for photosynthesis, so without cellular respiration photosynthesis, couldn't occur.
Photosynthesis CO2 + H2O + Sunlight Cellular respiration O + Glucose Raw materials for these processes.
This is photosynthesis: Sunlight + 6CO2 + 6H2O ----> 6O2, C6H12O6 This is cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 ----> 6CO2, 6H2O, ATP
Cellular respiration, because it releases the energy stored in carbon bonds by photosynthesis, and recombines carbon into carbon dioxide.
Cellular respiration. Their chemical equations are the reverse of each other.
The reverse of photosynthesis is cellular respiration.
Cellular Respiration
They perform cellular respiration but not photosynthesis.
photosynthesis is only happening in plants. But respiration is happening in animal cells too.

Notice that the equation for cellular respiration is the direct opposite of photosynthesis: Cellular Respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O. Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6+ 6O.
