Photosynthesis and respiration are vital processes in ecosystems that are closely interconnected. During photosynthesis, plants, algae, and some bacteria convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen. This process is fundamental for producing energy and organic matter in nature. Conversely, respiration is the process by which living organisms, including plants and animals, convert glucose and oxygen into energy, producing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Together, these processes form a cycle that sustains life on Earth.
