Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Select all that are raw materials for Photosynthesis.
A
Water
B
Carbon Dioxide
C
Oxygen
D
Sunlight (Light Energy)
E
Glucose (Sugar/food)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Raw materials for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight. Carbon dioxide is produced through the exchange of gases. This function is performed by stomata.

Detailed explanation-2: -The conversion of sunlight into usable chemical substances is attained by chlorophyll. The raw materials needed for the process of photosynthesis are CO2 and H2O. 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide with the help of sunlight produce glucose and 6 molecules of oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -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. Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch. Cellulose is used in building cell walls.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sunlight, chlorophyll, carbon dioxide, water and minerals are raw materials essential for photosynthesis.
