"Photosynthesis converts radiant energy into chemical energy, while cellular respiration converts chemical energy into energy that cells can use."

Explanation: Photosynthesis uses light to build glucose (chemical energy); cellular respiration breaks down glucose to make ATP (usable cellular energy). Photosynthesis consumes CO2 and releases O2; respiration consumes O2 and releases CO2.
