Here are the correct responses to complete the statements about photosynthesis and the carbon cycle:
- Photosynthesis is the chemical reaction by which plants produce complex food molecules (sugars). This process requires an energy input from sunlight to occur. In this reaction, the reactants carbon dioxide and water combine to form products such as glucose and oxygen gas. Photosynthesis is an important part of the carbon cycle because it removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
To summarize:
- chemical
- sunlight
- reactants
- products
- carbon dioxide
