Photorespiration. Photorespiration is a biochemical process in plants in which, especially under conditions of water stress, oxygen inhibits the Calvin cycle, the carbon fixation portion of photosynthesis.
Through photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide and create oxygen. This means that respiration can be thought of as photosynthesis in reverse. One major difference between the two is that plants respire constantly, but only photosynthesize when they are in the light. In dark conditions, a plant would respire, but not photosynthesize.
