Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis

Why are photosynthesis and cellular respiration often considered opposites?

• Photosynthesis produces twice as many ATP molecules as cellular respiration does.

• Water is released during photosynthesis and consumed during cellular respiration

• Photosynthesis occurs during the day, and cellular respiration occurs at night.

• Oxygen is produced during photosynthesis and used during cellular respiration.
