Photosynthesis is crucial in the short-term carbon cycle as it allows plants to convert carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into organic compounds, primarily glucose, using sunlight. This process not only provides energy for the plants themselves but also supports the entire food web by supplying energy to herbivores and, subsequently, carnivores. Additionally, oxygen produced during photosynthesis is essential for the respiration of most living organisms, highlighting its role in maintaining ecological balance. Overall, photosynthesis is a key mechanism for carbon capture and energy transfer in ecosystems.
No it does not, But water is a raw material.
Plants release oxygen during photosynthesis.
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis
stroma
The liquid part of the inside of a chloroplast is called stroma. It contains enzymes, DNA, ribosomes, and other structures necessary for photosynthesis. Stroma is where the Calvin cycle, which is part of the process of photosynthesis, takes place.

No, PS I and PS II are part of the first stage of photosynthesis, the light reactions. The Calvin cycle is the second stage of photosynthesis and does utilize the photosystems.

While photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, cellular respiration requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. It is the released oxygen that is used by us and most other organisms for cellular respiration.
