Question

how photosynthesis and respiration are reversible to each other explain ?

Answer 1

Dear Student,

Photosynthesis and respiration are opposite to each other in many ways. These are as follows:

Respiration	Photosynthesis
The process in living organisms of taking in oxygen from the surroundings and giving out carbon dioxide	The process in plants of taking carbon dioxide from outside and give out oxygen to the surroundings.
In respiration, the food is broken down into the cells in order to release energy.	Plants make their own food in the presence of sunlight, chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and water
Energy is released in the living organisms	Light energy is consumed by plants.
The process can take place in animals and plants also.	The process can take place in plants only.
Equation: C6H12O6(glucose) + 6O2 → 6H2O + 6CO2 + energy	Equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6(glucose) + 6O2
