Question

The chemical equation shown represents photosynthesis.

Answer 1

The correct answer is it combines with water to form glucose.

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants make food by the help  of sunlight and chlorophyll.

The food produced here is in the form of glucose.

The carbon dioxide, water and chlorophyll combines in the pressence of sunlight and forms glucose and oxygen which is the food for the plants.

Answer 2

Answer;

It combines with water to form glucose.

Explanation;

• Photosynthesis is a process by which green plants make their own food by using solar energy from the sun, together with water and carbon dioxide.
• Carbon dioxide, water and light are all needed for photosynthesis to take place. During the process solar energy from the sun is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose.
• Substance A is the above question represent carbon dioxide which combines with water in presence of light to form simple sugars and oxygen gas.

• The equation for the reaction is;

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2.
