NEET BIOLOGY

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: -The reactants of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water.

Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis produces water as a byproduct. During photosynthesis, plants take carbon dioxide ( C O 2 ), and water ( H 2 O ) from the air and soil.

Detailed explanation-4: -Water is also a product of photosynthesis. This water is produced from the oxygen atoms in the carbon dioxide molecules.

Detailed explanation-5: -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. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.
