Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

To convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose

To break down glucose into carbon dioxide and water

To release energy in the form of ATP

To produce carbon dioxide and water

In the mitochondria

In the chloroplasts

In the cell nucleus

In the cytoplasm

CO2 + H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → CO2 + H2O + ATP

CO2 + H2O + ATP → C6H12O6 + O2

C6H12O6 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

To provide energy for cellular activities

To store oxygen for later use

To convert carbon dioxide into glucose

To absorb sunlight for photosynthesis

Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, while cellular respiration returns it

Both processes release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration do not affect the carbon cycle

Cellular respiration removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, while photosynthesis returns it
