Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Select the products of photosynthesis:
A
Oxygen and glucose
B
Glucose and carbon dioxide
C
Oxygen and carbon dioxide
D
Water and carbon dioxide
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Although the hydrogen atoms from the water molecules are used in the photosynthesis reactions, the oxygen molecules are released as oxygen gas (O2). (This is good news for organisms like humans and plants that use oxygen to carry out cellular respiration!)

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.

Detailed explanation-3: -In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are released as byproducts.

Detailed explanation-4: -During the process of photosynthesis plants break apart the reactants of carbon dioxide and water and recombine them to produce oxygen (O2) and a form of sugar called glucose (C6H12O6).

Detailed explanation-5: -Glucose and oxygen are the final products of photosynthesis.
