The key difference between photosynthesis and cellular respiration lies in the involvement of light.

  • Photosynthesis involves light as it converts light energy into chemical energy, using carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen.

  • Cellular respiration, on the other hand, does not involve light; instead, it breaks down glucose in the presence of oxygen to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

So, the correct response to the difference is: The process involves light.
