The correct statement is: **The energy captured in photosynthesis is used to power cellular respiration.**
In photosynthesis, plants convert sunlight into chemical energy stored in glucose. This stored energy is then utilized during cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down to release energy that can be used by cells for metabolic processes.
