Why do you think the processes of photosynthesis and respiration are interrelated?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Consider the products and reactants of each process. In photosynthesis, plants require light, carbon dioxide and water to produce sugar and oxygen (in the net chemical equation).* Whereas in cellular respiration, organisms require sugar and oxygen, and produce water, carbon dioxide and energy. Do you see the relation? ^^

I think a helpful example would be our need for oxygen and sugar. Humans eat vegetables and fruits as a source of sugar for energy, and we also breathe the oxygen produced by plants during the process of photosynthesis. They're interrelated processes.
