The number that remains unchanged during photosynthesis is **the number of carbon atoms**.
In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide (CO₂) is absorbed, and carbon atoms from it are used to form glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆). While the number of carbon dioxide molecules changes as they are converted into glucose, the total number of carbon atoms remains constant as they are transformed and rearranged during the process.
