how are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related? A. Cellular respiration cannot occur without photosynthesis, B. they each occur in different organsims C.both depend on ATP as a source of energy D; both produce more ATP then they use

OpenStudy (d.a.n.i_33):

I am not 100% sure but, I am thinking A since the products of one process are the reactants of the other.

OpenStudy (brittanyrolfe):

The correct answer is A, although this answer may be false in the short-term, it is correct when thinking about the long term. If only humans lived on the earth, we would run out of oxygen to breath because there would not be any plants to replace all that CO2 with oxygen. To eliminate answers, B is not correct because plants can perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. C and D are both not correct because photosynthesis uses energy to produce glucose and cellular respiration oxidizes glucose and releases energy.
