Glucose actually isn't really formed in the Calvin Cycle. The product of the cycle is glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. This might look familiar - it is. This is the intermediate in glycolysis after the 6 carbon sugar splits into 3 carbon chunks.

After the Calvin Cycle glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate can be used directly as an immediate source of energy, or it can be modefied to become glucose (and then possibly paired to form sucrose for transport in the plant and then joined even more to make starch for storage in roots).

How are the processes of aerobic respiration and photosynthesis interrelated?

Aerobic respiration and photosynthesis are interrelated because they are complementary processes. Photosynthesis in plants produces oxygen and glucose using sunlight, while aerobic respiration in animals and plants uses oxygen and glucose to produce energy, releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Essentially, the oxygen and glucose produced during photosynthesis are used as inputs for aerobic respiration, and the carbon dioxide produced during respiration is used as an input for photosynthesis.
