Hola mate.....here is your answer.....
# Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is nothing but an energy entrapping process. Plants entrap solar energy and store them as a chemical compound in most of the cases the compound is carbohydrate in nature such as starch.
6CO2 + 6 H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + energy
Although photosynthesis is performed differently by different species, the process always begins when energy from light is absorbed by proteins called reaction centres that contain green chlorophyll pigments. In plants, these proteins are held inside organelles called chloroplasts, which are most abundant in leaf cells, while in bacteria they are embedded in the plasma membrane.
# Respiration
Respiration is an energy-using process. Where animals use their internal energy source such as carbohydrates, protein, lipid to conduct the biochemical reaction.
Cellular respiration in plants and animals both occur in an organelle named mitochondrion.
Mitochondrion helps in the usage of carbohydrates i.e; the compounds which are reservoirs of energy.
The relationship between photosynthesis and respiration
Photosynthesis is the process by which energy is stored and respiration is the process by which stored-energy used.
Hope u understood ^_^
