The product of photosynthesis is the substrate used in cellular respiration

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of photosynthesis is glucose which is used in cellular respiration as a substrate. Glucose enters the glycolysis, forming pyruvate, pyruvate when reacted with pyruvate dehydrogenase forms 2 molecules of acetyl CoA. These 2 molecules of Acetyl CoA enters the TCA cycle forming reducing agents which eventually enters Electron Transport Chain forming ATP molecules.
