Question

differentiate between respiration and photosynthesis​

Answer 1

The main difference between photosynthesis and cellular respiration is that photosynthesis is an anabolic process, where the synthesis of organic compounds occurs, storing energy whereas cellular respiration is a catabolic process, where the stored organic compounds are utilized, producing energy.

In the process of respiration, oxygen and glucose yield water and carbon dioxide, while carbon dioxide and water yields glucose and oxygen during the process of photosynthesis. ... Photosynthesis cannot occur without cellular respiration and cellular respiration certainly cannot occur without the photosynthesis.
