Question

The table below shows the role of different substances during photosynthesis. Substance Role During Photosynthesis Sunlight Converted into chemical energy Water Combines with carbon dioxide to form glucose Chlorophyll Combines with water to form oxygen Which of the following statements would correct one of the roles listed in the table? Water combines with oxygen to form glucose. Water is formed with sugar during photosynthesis. Sunlight is not transformed into other forms of energy. Chlorophyll absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis.

Answer 1

The answer to this question would be: Chlorophyll absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis

The equation for photosynthesis would be:
6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

In the equation, it is clear that the carbon dioxide and water will create glucose, oxygen. In this process, the chlorophyll is catching the energy that provided by sunlight. That means the statement "Chlorophyll Combines with water to form oxygen " is wrong.
