Detailed explanation-1: -Six turns of the calvin cycle results in the formation of one molecule of glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -In photosynthesis, energy from light is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. For 6 carbon dioxide and 6 water molecules, 1 glucose molecule and 6 oxygen molecules are produced.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.

Detailed explanation-4: -During photosynthesis, light energy converts carbon dioxide and water (the reactants) into glucose and oxygen (the products).
