Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the products of photosynthesis (what is made)?
A
Glucose and Chlorophyll
B
Glucose and Oxygen
C
Water and Light
D
Carbon dioxide and Water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the air and soil. 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 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.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis is the process in which green plants use sunlight, along with water and carbon dioxide to make their own food. Oxygen and glucose are the by-products of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Therefore, the products of photosynthesis are Glucose and Oxygen.

Detailed explanation-5: -Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch. Cellulose is used in building cell walls.
