Cellular Respiration Compared to Photosynthesis
Cellular Respiration
Occurs at all times
6O2 + C6H12O6 --> 6CO2 +6H2O + ATP
Glycolosis, Krebs Cycle, Electron Chain
Oxygen absorbed, Carbon Dioxide released
Releases energy
Breaks down food
O2 final electron receptor
Photosynthesis
Can only occur with sunlight
6CO2 + 12H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H20
Light dependent reaction
Oxygen released, Carbon Dioxide absorbed
Required energy
Creates food
NADP+ final electron receptor
Similarities
Both supply their organisms with energy
Exchange of gasses
Both transform energy
Both have alternate pathways
Both move electrons through electron transport chains
