Question

Photosynthesis:

Select one:
a. Is not an oxidation-reduction reaction
b. Is a process which produces glucose and oxygen
c. Is a process which produces water and carbon dioxide
d. Is not dependent on chlorophyll
e. None of the above are correct

Answer 1

Photosynthesis is a process that converts light energy into chemical energy and b) produces glucose and oxygen. It involves both light-dependent and light-independent reactions and is dependent on chlorophyll.

Step-by-step explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process that converts light energy into chemical energy and produces glucose and oxygen. The reactants of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water, while the products are glucose and oxygen.

The overall equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H₂O + Light Energy → C6H12O6 + 602. Photosynthesis involves both light-dependent and light-independent reactions, and it is dependent on chlorophyll in plant cells.
