Question

Responses

the number of carbon atoms
the number of carbon atoms

the number of water molecules
the number of water molecules

the number of glucose molecules
the number of glucose molecules

the number of carbon dioxide molecules
the number of carbon dioxide molecules

Answer 1

The number of carbon atoms remains unchanged during photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) into glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). While the number of carbon dioxide molecules decreases, the total number of carbon atoms in the reactants and products remains the same.
