Differences between Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis:
|
Cellular Respiration
|
Photosynthesis
|
|
| 1. |
Occurs in all living organisms.
|
Occurs only in all green plants, algae, and in some bacteria.
|
| 2. |
The entire process occurs in Mitochondria.
|
The entire process occurs in Chloroplasts.
|
| 3. |
Glucose and oxygen are the reactants of this process.
|
Carbon dioxide, water, and light energy are the reactants of this process.
|
| 4. |
In this process, food particles are broken down to release energy.
|
In this process, food is synthesis by capturing the energy.
|
| 5. |
It is an exergonic reaction as energy is released.
|
It is an endothermic reaction as it requires energy.
|
| 6. |
This process does not require sunlight since cellular respiration occurs all the time.
|
This process requires sunlight since photosynthesis occurs only in the presence of sunlight.
|
| 7. |
The chemical reaction of cellular Respiration is:
$C_6 H_{12} O_6+6 O_2 \rightarrow 6 CO_2+6 H_2 O$
|
The chemical reaction of photosynthesis is:
$6 CO_2+6 H_2 O \rightarrow C_6 H_{12} O_6+6 O_2$
