Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are connected through an important relationship. This relationship enables life to survive as we know it. The products of one process are the reactants of the other. Notice that the equation for cellular respiration is the direct opposite of photosynthesis:
Cells transfer<span> the energy </span>in<span> organic compounds, especially the glucose made </span>during photosynthesis<span>, to ATP through </span>cellular respiration<span>, which begins with glycolysis.
