Question

The overall process of photosynthesis can be written as the equation:

A. 6 glucose + 6 water --> 6 oxygen + 6 carbon dioxide + light

B. 6 water + 6 carbon dioxide (+ light) --> 6 oxygen + glucose

C. 6 oxygen + 6 water (+ light) --> 6 glucose + carbon dioxide

Answer 1

B. 6 water + 6 carbon dioxide (+ light) --> 6 oxygen + glucose

Step-by-step explanation:

In words, the equation may be stated as: Six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules react to produce one glucose molecule and six oxygen molecules. The reaction requires energy in the form of light to overcome the activation energy needed for the reaction to proceed.

Answer 2

the overall process of photosynthesis is written by the equation B.
