What is the correct energy based difference between photosynthesis and respiration?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Photosynthesis absorbs light energy and stores it as chemical energy, whereas respiration releases energy

In photosynthesis, plants use light energy to make glucose from carbon dioxide and water. Thus, light energy is stored as chemical energy in glucose. During respiration, glucose is oxidised and energy is released as ATP and heat. Option B is a close distractor because glucose is broken down only in respiration; it is formed during photosynthesis. Exam tip: Remember photosynthesis as energy storage and respiration as energy release.
