Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: The word equation for photosynthesis is as follows: Carbon dioxide + water + (light energy) → glucose + oxygen gas.
Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon dioxide + Water → Glucose + oxygen.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Photosynthesis is the process in which solar energy is trapped by chlorophyll to convert carbon dioxide and water to produce food in the form of glucose. It is produced in plants where chlorophyll is present inside the chloroplast as trapping the solar energy initiates the process.
