Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis requires sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water as starting reactants (Figure 5.5). After the process is complete, photosynthesis releases oxygen and produces carbohydrate molecules, most commonly glucose. These sugar molecules contain the energy that living things need to survive.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis: inputs – light energy, carbon dioxide, water. Outputs – glucose, oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -The reactants of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water. These are the molecules necessary to begin the process. But one more item is necessary, and that is sunlight. All three components, carbon dioxide, water, and the sun’s energy are necessary for photosynthesis to occur.

Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis has three main inputs: Sunlight. Carbon dioxide. Water.

Detailed explanation-5: -In photosynthesis, water, carbon dioxide, and energy in the form of sunlight are inputs, and the outputs are glucose and oxygen.
