Respiration is a beautiful cycle. Respiration and photosynthesis are the two sub-cycles of the carbon cycle. Photosynthesis produces oxygen and carbohydrate-rich plant matter, which, in the respiration cycle, is then breathed in and consumed by animal life in order to fuel their biological processes. Carbon dioxide and water are the by-products which in turn are used in photosynthesis – the perfect cycle. PPS Integrated Report 2021 115 |
