Answer:

B.)Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and cellular respiration puts it back.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the ways in which photosynthesis differs from respiration is that photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and cellular respiration puts it back.

  • Photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants manufacture their food in the presence of sunlight using carbon dioxide and water.
  • The product is usually glucose and oxygen.
  • Respiration breaks down energy rich compounds into ATP, carbon dioxide and water.
