Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which substance must a green plant obtain from its environment to carry on photosynthesis?
A
Glucose and water
B
Oxygen and chlorophyll
C
Carbon dioxide and water
D
Carbon dioxide and oxygen
Explanation: 

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: -Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and some bacteria to turn sunlight into energy. The process chemically converts carbon dioxide (CO2) and water into food (sugars) and oxygen.
