Photosynthesis makes the glucose that cellular respiration uses to make ATP.
Explanation:
Plants are autotrophs , meaning that they make their own food from inorganic substances and sunlight = photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis :
- Input: water, CO2 and sunlight
- Output: glucose and O2.
This glucose is food for the plant, but is not yet usable energy. Cells of plants use mainly the molecule ATP (adenosine triphosphate) as energy.
Cellular respiration:
- Input: glucose and O2
- Output: CO2, water and ATP (energy).
