Photosynthesis and respiration are reactions that complement each other in the environment. They are in reality the same reactions but occurring in reverse. While in photosynthesis carbon dioxide and water yield glucose and oxygen, through the respiration process glucose and oxygen yield carbon dioxide and water.
One example of this relationship is the photosynthesis of a plant, and the cellular respiration of an animal. Photosynthesis and Respiration. Photosynthesis takes place when plants take light from the sun, water from the soil, and carbon dioxide from the air, and turn it into energy, in the form of glucose, to allow the plant to function and grow.
