Step-by-step explanation:


\tt{6CO_2 + 12H_2 O→C_6 H_(12 )O_6+ 6O_2+ 6H_2 O}

Here, six molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2) combine with 12 molecules of water (H2O) using light energy. The end result is the formation of a single carbohydrate molecule (C6H12O6, or glucose) along with six molecules each of breathable oxygen and water.
