Question

plants take co₂ (carbon dioxide) out of the atmosphere through __________, in which carbon dioxide and sunlight are absorbed to create fuel - glucose and other sugars - for building plant structures.
cellular respiration
photosynthesis
death
chemosynthesis

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process where plants use \(CO_2\), sunlight, and water to produce glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration is the process of breaking down glucose to release energy. Death is the cessation of life processes. Chemosynthesis is a process where organisms use chemical energy (not sunlight) to produce food. Since the question mentions \(CO_2\) and sunlight being used to create glucose (a key aspect of photosynthesis), photosynthesis is the correct answer.

Answer:

B. Photosynthesis
