Question

What does the formula below represent?

CO2 + H20 → C6H1206 +02

A: photosynthesis

B: ionization of glucose

C: hydrolysis of carbohydrates

D: dehydration

Answer 1

That would be A. Photosynthesis.

Answer 2

The correct answer is option A: "photosynthesis".

Step-by-step explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by producers, such as plants and some bacteria, at which they produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water using sunlight as fountain of energy. Oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis, which is used by aerobic organisms to perform cellular respiration. The formula herein included represents the process of photosynthesis, since the combination of carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H20), produces glucose (C6H1206) and oxygen (02).
