Question

Fill in the blanks, selecting from the choices below.

Light + _________ + _________ ! _________ + heat + sugars

CO, CO2, O2, H2, H2O, N2, NO

Answer 1

In this chemical equation, carbon dioxide and water react to produce oxygen, heat, and sugars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Light + CO2 + H2O ! O2 + heat + sugars

In this chemical equation, carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) are reactants, while oxygen (O2), heat, and sugars are products.

When light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll, carbon dioxide and water are transformed into oxygen and a building block of sugar (carbohydrate) through the process of photosynthesis.
