Answer:

B or C

Step-by-step explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process that plants and certain organisms undergo to make their own food.The equation is:

CO2(carbon dioxide) + H20 (water)+ light energy --> O2 (oxygen) + C6H1206 (glucose)

Carbon dioxide, water and light energy from the sun are turned into oxygen and glucose (sugar). The sugar becomes the food for the organism.

Cellular respiration is a process that plants and animals undergo to create energy for their bodies. The equation is :

O2 (oxygen) + C6H1206 (glucose) --> CO2(carbon dioxide) + H20 (water)+ ATP

Oxygen and glucose are turned into carbon dioxide, water and ATP (usuable energy).

The molecule that is released by cellular respiration and then used in photosynthesis is CO2, or carbon dioxide and H20, or water. Therefore, C or B is correct, depending on the image.
