Does this equation look familiar?
Carbon dioxide + Water ---> Glucose + Oxygen
6 CO2 + 6 H2O ----> C6H12O6 + 6 O2 This is the equation for photosynthesis. It is what we have been talking about before the break. The equation is carbon dioxide and water, react together with the power of the sun to yield glucose (sugar) and oxygen. This oxygen is what we breathe in and it is what allows us to survive on the earth. This is the equation for photosynthesis. It is what we have been talking about before the break.

What about this equation?
Glucose + Oxygen ---> Carbon dioxide + Water
C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ---> 6 CO2 + 6 H20 This is the equation is the photosynthesis equation backwards. This is actually the equation for cellular respiration. These equations are very similar to one another, but they are just performed backwards. Cell respiration breaks down glucose with the help of oxygen and it yields CO2 and H2O. This CO2 is what we breathe out and what plants use to use photosynthesis. This is the equation is the photosynthesis equation backwards. This is actually the equation for cellular respiration.

4. What is Respiration? Cellular respiration is: cells breaking down food molecules releasing energy to power the cell Respiration Equation: glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ---> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O
