Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are carbon dioxide and water converted into by the end of photosynthesis?
A
air and sunlight
B
water and air
C
sugar and water
D
sugar and oxygen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized, meaning it loses electrons, while the carbon dioxide is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is the method through which plants make their food. They use sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to produce energy, in the form of glucose (a type of sugar) and oxygen is something that is left over from this process.

Detailed explanation-3: -During photosynthesis, light energy converts carbon dioxide and water (the reactants) into glucose and oxygen (the products).
