Complete the chemical reaction below. 6CO2 + 6H2O
A
6O2
B
Sugar
C
6H2O
D
6HO
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The chemical equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2. 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2. In plants, the process of photosynthesis takes place in the mesophyll of the leaves, inside the chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain disc-shaped structures called thylakoids, which contain the pigment chlorophyll.

Detailed explanation-2: -The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.

Detailed explanation-3: -Thus, the correct answer is ‘Photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Conclusion: Therefore, the balance chemical equation is: 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2.
