How is cellular respiration and glycolysis connected

 Relationship Photosynthesis Cellular Respiration Cellular respiration and photosynthesis work together as one continuous cycle. The reactants of cellular 
respiration are the products
of photosynthesis and the 
reactants of photosynthesis
are the products of cellular
respiration. Photosynthesis' products are glucose and oxygen. While cellular respiration's products are carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis uses the carbon dioxide and water created by cellular respiration to create glucose and oxygen. And cellular respiration uses the glucose and oxygen from photosynthesis to form carbon dioxide and water. Cellular respiration is a process which glucose and oxygen is used to help create carbon dioxide, water and ATP. There are 3 steps involved in
cellular respiration: 1.Glycolysis- This step splits the glucose molecule in half into 2 pyruvic acid which are used in the next step. Glycolysis produces ATP and NADH (electron carrier). 2.The Citric Acid Cycle- This step takes the two pyruvic acids, modifies them and then ginds them down producing ATP, NADH, CO2, and FADH2 (electron carrier). 3.The Electron Transport Chain- This step takes all the NADH and FADH2 from the other steps and uses them to create the most ATP out of all the steps. The equation for cellular respiration is: Photosynthesis is a process in which light energy is transformed into organic material. Photosynthesis uses sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to create glucose and oxygen. Photosynthesis consists of 2

As it turns out, the cellular respiration pathways we’ve already seen are central to the extraction of energy from all these different molecules. Amino acids, lipids, and other carbohydrates can be converted to various intermediates of glycolysis and the citric acid cycle, allowing them to slip into the cellular respiration pathway through a multitude of side doors. Once these molecules enter the pathway, it makes no difference where they came from: they’ll simply go through the remaining steps, yielding NADH, FADH_22start subscript, 2, end subscript, and ATP.
