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: -During photosynthesis, light energy converts carbon dioxide and water (the reactants) into glucose and oxygen (the products).
Detailed explanation-3: -Plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food. During photosynthesis, plants trap light energy with their leaves. Plants use the energy of the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into a sugar called glucose.
