Answer: The bubbles produced are most likely due to oxygen.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a phenomenon in which green plants containing chlorophyll use sunlight as a source of energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to form glucose and oxygen.

The balanced chemical reaction for photosynthesis is:

$6CO_2+6H_2O\rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2$

Thus the bubbles produced are most likely due to oxygen.
