D
nucleic acid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: During photosynthesis, the biological macromolecule glucose is produced. Glucose is a simple sugar that is made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Most of the macromolecules synthesized from photosynthesis are carbohydrates, but autotrophs can also produce proteins and lipids. These macromolecules are consumed by the autotrophs in their metabolic reactions and utilized by heterotrophs as food and other non-food products.

Detailed explanation-3: -During the process of photosynthesis, cells use carbon dioxide and energy from the Sun to make sugar molecules and oxygen. These sugar molecules are the basis for more complex molecules made by the photosynthetic cell, such as glucose.
