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.
Submit. Respiration in plants is basically the opposite of photosynthesis. Where photosynthesis creates sugars to store solar energy, respiration releases energy from stored sugar, which is then available for the growth and metabolism of the plant. Respiration is not the same in plants as it is in animals. While animal respiration, or breathing, is active, respiration in plants is passive.
