Question

Which of the following does NOT model photosynthesis? (1 point)
Responses

6CO2 + 6H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6O2
6CO2 + 6H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6O2

carbon dioxide + water + light YIELDS sugars + oxygen
carbon dioxide + water + light YIELDS sugars + oxygen

6CO2 + 6H2O + NADP+ + light → C6H12O6 + 6O2 + NADPH
6CO2 + 6H2O + NADP+ + light → C6H12O6 + 6O2 + NADPH

6H2O + 6O2 + light → C6H12O6 + 6CO2
6H2O + 6O2 + light → C6H12O6 + 6CO2

1 answer

The statement that does NOT model photosynthesis is:

6H2O + 6O2 + light → C6H12O6 + 6CO2

This equation is incorrect because it suggests that water and oxygen are reactants, which is not the case in photosynthesis. Instead, the correct inputs for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water, yielding glucose and oxygen. The correct equation should maintain the relationship of reactants and products as in the other options provided.
