it is only needed for photosynthesis as we humans do not get our energy from light ( think about it we still breath when it is dark don't we)

Do cellular respiration needs sunlight?
Yes they definitely do because through respiration they break down the food made by photosynthesis to obtain energy and energy is needed all the time. so respiration is carried out all the day and is not affected by the presence or absence of light although photosynthesis only occurs in the presence of light.
Respiration and photosynthesis summary?
photosynthesis is the collection of sun light in order to create food
What atmospheric gas that is a by-product of the light reaction of photosynthesis is essential to aerobic respiration?
An atmospheric gas; a by product of the light reaction of photosynthesis; essentials to aerobic respiration.
Is the Calvin cycle a part of cellular respiration?
The Calvin cycle does not utilize oxygen as a reactant, so it is not aerobic.
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.
What is light energy and what does it do for cellular respiration?
Light energy does not affect respiration, but it is needed for photosynthesis, which in plants creates the chemical compounds (carbohydrates) that are oxidized in cellular respiration.
Where do plants get glucose and oxygen needed for respiration?
Glucose they make from photosynthesis oxygen is made as a waste product for photosynthesis

What important molecule that is needed for cellular respiration is released when water is split in the light reactions of photosynthesis?
Oxygen
Why does a plant need chlorolst and the mitochondria?
Chloroplast is needed for photosynthesis. Mitochondria is needed for respiration
Is light common to both cellular respiration and the light reactions of photosynthesis?
No, light is not necessary for cellular respiration.
What system provides the food source needed for respiration?
photosynthesis

What organelle is needed to break down the glucose in cell respiration?
photosynthesis
