Explain how photosynthesis is different from respiration?

 

Answer:

PHOTOSYNTHESIS Vs RESPIRATION  - Teachoo.jpg

Photosynthesis

Respiration

  1. Photosynthesis is the process of synthesis of food by the green plants in the presence of sunlight.
  2. In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is taken in and oxygen is released .
  3. It takes place only in the presence of light.
  4. The end products of this reaction are sugars like glucose and oxygen.
  5. It is seen only in plants.
  1. Respiration is the process of releasing energy from food .
  2. In respiration, oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is given out.
  3. It does not depend on the presence or absence of light to occur.
  4. The end products of this reaction are either carbon dioxide and energy in case of aerobic respiration or ethanol and carbon dioxide in case of anaerobic respiration .
  5. It is seen in both plants and animals .
