Question

which of the following is an output of photosynthesis?
a oxygen
b. carbon dioxide
c. water
d nutrients
please select the best answer from the choices provided

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide (\(CO_2\)) and water (\(H_2O\)) to produce glucose (\(C_6H_{12}O_6\)) and oxygen (\(O_2\)). Carbon dioxide and water are inputs. Nutrients are absorbed from the soil and not a direct output of the photosynthesis chemical reaction. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is \(6CO_2 + 6H_2O+light
ightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2\).

Answer:

A. oxygen
