Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen gas. It is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy (in the form of ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

On the other hand, photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen gas, using sunlight as an energy source.

So, in summary:

  • Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen.
  • Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen.
