Question

The products of photosynthesis required to start cellular respiration are

• A. Oxygen and ATP.
• B. Water and Carbon dioxide.
• C. NADP and Hydrogen.
• D. Glucose and Oxygen.
• E. Carbohydrates and NADP.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Glucose and Oxygen.

Photosynthesis is a process of fixation of carbon dioxide into glucose and produces glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration is the breakdown of glucose into simpler substances to release the stored energy. The aerobic cellular respiration uses oxygen as terminal electron acceptor. So glucose and oxygen are the product of photosynthesis which is used in cellular respiration. So, the correct answer is option D.
