A)Photosynthesis and cellular respiration both use carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
B)Photosynthesis and cellular respiration both use oxygen and release carbon dioxide.
C)Cellular respiration uses oxygen and releases carbon dioxide, while photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and releases oxygen.
D)Cellular respiration uses carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, while photosynthesis uses oxygen and releases carbon dioxide.
