Photosynthesis and
Cellular Respiration
A love story
PhotosynthesisNearly all energy that fuels life comes from the SUN! The food that plants make supplies them with energy. It also supplies energy to anything that eats plants.
Photosynthesis is the
process where plants
capture the energy
from the sun and
change it into food.Chlorophyll are pigments found in plants that absorb
light energy. They are found in Chloroplasts!
The Process!Energy from light changes CO2 and H2O
into Glucose and Oxygen.
The chemical formula for glucose is C6H1206
Glucose is a simple
sugar. When it is stored
in organisms it is a
carbohydrate.
6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy C6H1206 + 6O2
The Equation
Cellular Respiration
Respiration (breathing) supplies the Oxygen (O2) for Cellular Respiration. It also removes the Carbon
Dioxide (CO2) which is waste.
This is where we get our energy to run, skip, play, cry, laugh, text, etc.
Cellular Respiration is a Chemical Process where glucose
(food) is broken down (apart) and Carbon Dioxide, Water, and
Energy are released.

Mitochondria in Eukaryotic Cells (Plants and Animals)
Cellular Respiration
takes place in the:
The Energy released during Cellular Respiration is called Adenosine Triphosphate or ATP.
ATP FUELS CELL ACTIVITIES!

How are these processes related?
The products released from Photosynthesis are used in Cellular Respiration. The waste products released during Cellular Respiration are used in Photosynthesis!
It’s almost a circle!
