How do the equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration compare?

Answer:
The equation for cellular respiration is C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy.
The equation for photosynthesis is 6H2O + 6CO2 + Light Energy -> C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Cellular respiration does not require light energy, and photosynthesis does.
