Which of the following is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?(1 point)

Responses

C6H12O6 + O2 → CO2 + H2O + Energy
C 6 H 12 O 6 + O 2 → CO 2 + H 2 O + Energy

6C6H12O6 + 6O2 + sunlight → 6CO2 + 6H2O
6C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 + sunlight → 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O

6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight → C6H12O6 + 6O2

1 answer

The correct chemical equation for photosynthesis is:

6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight → C6H12O6 + 6O2

This equation represents how plants use carbon dioxide and water, in the presence of sunlight, to produce glucose and oxygen.
