Answer: The equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Explanation: Photosynthesis is a process by which plants use carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen.
In the above equation, six molecules of carbon dioxide react with six molecules of water in the presence of sunlight to produce one molecule of glucose and six molecules of oxygen.
Plants absorb sunlight using the green pigment known as chlorophyll which is located in the chloroplast where photosynthesis takes place.
