    Photosynthesis and cellular respiration go hand and hand. Remember the two equations are just a reverse of the opposite equation.

    Cellular Respiration-

    C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ (Yeilds or Makes) 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP (Or Energy)

    Photosynthesis-

    6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP (Or Sunlight) (Yeilds or Makes) C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O ₂

    When a plant goes through photosynthesis it produces oxygen as a waste product, which you should know is what animals use to breathe, well when animals use oxygen in the process, they also make a waste product which happens to be Carbon Dioxide, which a plant uses to make glucose during photosynthesis, so if we didin't have one we wouldn't have the other.
