Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is option 1 i.e In photosynthesis by green plants carbon dioxide is used for making carbohydrate. Explanation: Photosynthesis: Photosynthesis requires sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose.
Detailed explanation-2: -The correct equation for photosynthesis is : 6CO2+12H2Osunlight−−−−−−−→ChlorophyllC6H12O6+6O2+6H2O. Q.
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: -It is equal to the total mass of oxygen and glucose formed.
