Relations between Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are very alike to each other. They use the same parts; carbon dioxide, water, sunlight, sugar, and oxygen. Energy molecules called ATP are used to build glucose, which is the same as sugar in the equation mentioned. Even though they are very alike, they are also opposites at the same time. The reactants for photosynthesis and the products for cellular respiration, and the reactants for cellular respiration are the products for photosynthesis. Both of these processes are used by living things everyday. Without them, none of us would be here right now. These two processes balance each other out. Without photosynthesis, cellular respiration would not be possible, and the same goes the other way around. Both of these processes are required for symbiosis.
These two processes form a cycle, both depending on each other to be able to continue the cycle. Cellular respiration is only possible if photosynthesis is undergo-ed. Since animals cannot produce oxygen by themselves like plants can when they undergo photosynthesis, all animals rely on plants just as much as plants rely on animals to undergo cellular respiration.

ATP - Abbreviation for adenosine triphosphate, empirical formula: C10H16N5O13P3
Symbiosis- the living together of two dissimilar organisms, as in mutualism, commensalism, amensalism, or parasitism.
