Difference between Respiration and Photosynthesis ?..

Answer / guest

Respiration:-
(1)In this process, oxygen is utilized and carbon dioxide is
given out by plants
(2)It is destructive( Catabolic) process.
(3)Respiration is performed by all loving cells of plants
at all tines i.e independent of light and chlorophyll
(4)Respiration results in a loss of dry weight of the plants
as carbon dioxide is formed by breakdown of the food
material. This CO2 at once escapes from the plant body,

Photosynthesis:-
(1)Here, carbon dioxide is utilized, and oxygen is given out
by plants.
(2)It is a constructive process
(3)Photosynthesis is performed only in presence of sunlight
by the green cells. This process proceeds only for a limited
period but it is more vigorous than the process of respiration
(4)Photosynthesis results in grain in dry weight due to
formation of sugar starch which is accumulated in body of plant.
