Question
what are the required ingredients for photosynthesis?
check all that apply
carbon dioxide
oxygen
water
light
sugar
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is \(6CO_2 + 6H_2O+light\ energy
ightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2\). Carbon dioxide (\(CO_2\)) is taken in from the atmosphere (usually through stomata in leaves). Water (\(H_2O\)) is absorbed by plant roots from the soil. Light (usually sunlight) is captured by chlorophyll (in chloroplasts) and provides the energy for the reaction. Oxygen (\(O_2\)) and sugar (\(C_6H_{12}O_6\)) are products of photosynthesis, not ingredients.
