Photosynthesis is this:

carbon dioxide + water ------> glucose + oxygen

Glucose and oxygen are the products of photosynthesis where glucose is used for energy, and excess is stored as starch for later use, while oxygen is a waste product for plants and is released through gas exchange.

So the answer would be A.

The products are :

↬ sugar and oxygen

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for photosynthesis is :


\underbrace{\bf{6CO_2+6H_2O}}_{\sf{reactants}}\rightarrow \underbrace{\bf{C_6H_(12)O_6+6O_2}}_\sf{products}

Reactants react to produce products. Remember that.

We know that,


  • \bf{C_6H_(12)O_6} is the formula for glucose, and glucose is a sugar

  • \bf{O_2} is oxygen

Hence, the products are sugar and oxygen.
