Both oxygen and hydrogen are necessary to form carbohydrates. The hydrogen to oxygen ratio is 2 to 1, just like with water. The explains the basis for the name carbohydrate which is watered carbon.

Where does the carbon from glucose end up?
After cellular respiration occurs, the hydrogen that was in glucose gets attracted to the Oxygen atoms and it becomes water. the hydrogen seperates from the carbon in the glucose and it forms another bond with Oxygen. Hope that helped
What is photosynthesis equation?
sunlight water=carbon dioxide---glucose=oxegen chlorophyll or you can have... carbon dioxide = water= glucose = oxegen
Is Carbon used by plants to make sugar?
Yes, carbon is used by plants to make sugar. Carbon dioxide (CO2), is taken in by plants along with water (H2O) to make sugar. First, plants through photosynthesis transform water into hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). the Hydrogen is then combined with CO2 to create C6H12O2, or other words called glucose. Glucose is a simple sugar that exists in plants. Apple trees for instance uses the glucose to make sweet apples for you! XD
Word equation for BURNING Glucose?
Respiration: Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy/ATP
The building blocks of sugars and the substances used by plants in photosynthesis are?
water and carbon dioxide. In photosynthesis, water is split, oxygen is given off as a waste product, and hydrogen is combined with carbon dioxide to form sugars.
Is carbon dioxide used in plants?
Carbon dioxide is combined with the hydrogen from NADPH to produce glucose
What do plants cells use to produce glucose and and oxygen?
Plants use water, carbon dioxide, and the energy of sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen, in the process called photosynthesis. To form a carbohydrate molecule, carbon and oxygen is combined with hydrogen from the breakup of water molecules.
What makes up the compound glucose?
Carbon Dioxide, Oxygen, and Hydrogen
Do carbon dioxide water and glucose have all elements?
Carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O) and glucose (C6H12O6) do not have all elements, they just have a few elements, carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.
How is water connect to photosynthesis?
water is combined with carbon dioxide to make glucose and oxygen
What does carbon dioxide hydrogen and energy mix together represent?
Production of Glucose in Plants
Do carbon dioxide water and glucose hve all elements?
No. Carbon Dioxide (CO2)= 1 Carbon molecule, 2 Oxygen. Water (H2O)= 1 Oxygen, 2 Hydrogen. Glucose (C6H12O6)= 6 Carbon, 12 Hydrogen, 6 Oxygen. There are 115 left. Hope this helps.
Is carbon dioxide reduce or oxidized i photosynthesis?
Water is oxidized in the process of photosynthesis.
Can carbon and oxygen form into water?
No. Water is a compound of oxygen and hydrogen. Carbon and oxygen will combined to form carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide.
Is carbon dioxide a type of glucose?
Not at all. It is a by-product of respiration and is a gas at room temperature. Glucose (a carbohydrate) also has hydrogen atoms.
What is a compound .science. and what things could be compounds?
A compound is a pure substance, composed of two or more elements chemically combined, and having a definite proportion. Water, H2O, is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen; carbon dioxide, CO2, is a compound of carbon and oxygen; and glucose, C6H12O6, is a compound of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
How can many carbon dioxide molecules are needed to make a single glucose molecule?
Six carbon dioxide molecules (CO2) are required to create one glucose molecule (C6H12O6) because carbon dioxide has one carbon per molecule, while glucose molecules have six carbons.
