Which of the following statements correctly describes the metabolic relationship between photosynthesis and aerobic cellular respiration in plant cells?

A) Photosynthesis produces ATP directly used for all cellular work, while cellular respiration only generates heat to maintain plant temperature.

B) Photosynthesis consumes oxygen and releases carbon dioxide, which is then utilized by cellular respiration to synthesize carbohydrates.

C) Cellular respiration replaces photosynthesis during the daytime so that chloroplasts can store radiant energy without metabolizing it.

D) The organic molecules and oxygen generated during photosynthesis serve as the primary substrates for cellular respiration.
