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. We’ve established that plants need carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) to produce their food, but where do these reactants come from and how do they get where they need to go inside the plant?
Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose.
Detailed explanation-4: -The reactants of photosynthesis are sunlight, CO2, and water (H2O). The products of photosynthesis are glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). The reactants of cellular respiration, which are the products of cellular respiration, are carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and ATP.
