Answer:
chloroplasts and mitochondria are both organelles that are responsible for energy conversions within the cell. Chloroplasts use sunlight and water and carbon dioxide to produce glucose for plants (photosynthesis). On the other hand, mitochondria break down glucose molecules to produce cell energy in the form of ATP for both plants and animals (cellular respiration).
Step-by-step explanation:
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are almost opposite reactions.
Photosynthesis = 6H2O + 6CO2 + sunlight ---> C6H12O2 + O2
Cellular Respiration C6H12O2 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O +ATP
Without photosynthesis plants could not store the energy we use as food and produce oxygen for us
Without cellular respiration we would not be able to obtain energy and give CO2 back to the environment
