The ozone layer in the stratosphere protects Earth from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. Where does the ozone come from?

Biology

Ozone is created when energetic photons from the sun such as the UV strikes a molecule of oxygen splitting the two atoms. The radical atom then bombards with another oxygen molecule and join to create an O3 complex called ozone. The rate at which the ozone is created is balanced by the rate at which it is destroyed by the same energetic photons.

If light intensity continues to increase, will the rate of photosynthesis increase indefinitely? why?
Goshia [24]
Maybe not because after light increases stomas will decrease and after that plant leaf will take less co2 and less co2 mean less synthesis in the plant.

Which information can be determined from the chemical formula C6H12O6?; What is the correct formula for photosynthesis?; How are
3241004551 [841]

The chemical formula C6H12O6 is the chemical formula of glucose which is a monosaccharide containing an aldehyde group (-CHO) with 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms. Glucose is a product produced from photosynthesis.

The chemical molecular formula for the photosynthesis process is 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2. The synthesis process is a reaction that occurs in plants to produce food to be used as energy for cells. The process of photosynthesis requires materials in the form of air which is represented by H2O and carbon dioxide which is represented by the formula CO2 in the chemical formula of the photosynthesis process. The products of photosynthesis are glucose which is represented by C6H12O6 and oxygen which is represented by O2 in the chemical formula.

Some people often refer to the chemical formula of photosynthesis as CO2+H2O→C6H12O6+O2, this formula is an unbalanced equation. Because the auction will produce glucose with the chemical formula C6H12O6 having 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms, then should the chemical formula carbon dioxide H2O and water O2 also have a total of 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms, and 6 oxygen atoms.
