Question

Which of the following chemical reactions proves the fact that the products of photosynthesis are reactants of respiration?

Answer 1

The chemical reaction of the process of photosynthesis involves the substances carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light. The balnced chemical reaction is:

6CO2 + 6H2O  <==== >C6H12O6 + 6O2

The product oxygen (O2) is used in the respiration process of living organisms as a reactant.

Answer 2

6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy  (Photosynthesis) <==== >C6H12O6 + 6O2 (Respiration )
