Answer:

Photosynthesis removes carbon from the atmosphere, and cellular respiration releases carbon back into the atmosphere.

Explanation:

The first option clearly expresses the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration releases carbon back into the atmosphere whereas photosynthesis removes the carbon from the atmosphere.

Photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants manufacture their food using carbon dioxide and water.

In cellular respiration, the product of the photosynthesis is used by organisms to produce energy.
