Question

Which of the following is the correct equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?
CO2 + O2 + H20 --> Light+ glucose
CO2 + glucose + H20 --> O2 + light
CO2 + light + H2O --> O2 + glucose
O 02 + light + H2O --> CO2 + glucose

Answer 1

Answer:

CO₂ + light + H₂O --> O₂ + glucose

General Formulas and Concepts:

Photosynthesis is for plants and they use water, carbon dioxide, and energy to make oxygen and sugar.

Explanation:

The general formula for photosynthesis is always:

6CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l) + light (energy) → C₆H₁₂O₆ (s) + 6O₂ (g)
