The reactants in photosynthesis are:
1. Carbon dioxide (CO2): This is the primary source of carbon for plants during photosynthesis.
2. Water (H2O): This is required for the synthesis of glucose and acts as a source of electrons during the light-dependent reactions.
3. Light energy: Photons of light provide the energy needed to power the process of photosynthesis.
4. Chlorophyll: This is a pigment found in chloroplasts that captures light energy and initiates the process of photosynthesis.
Please note that there are other molecules and substances involved in photosynthesis, but these are the main reactants.
