How are photosynthesis and respiration related to each other ?

Open in App

Solution

The end product of Photosynthesis is glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. While water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
