The formula for photosynthesis is: 6 CO2 + 6 H2O → C6H12O6 + 6 O2
In words: Carbon dioxide + Water + Light energy → Glucose + Oxygen
This is the most common formula used for photosynthesis, but it actually accounts for net water consumption. When we don't account for net water consumption, the formula is: 6 CO2 + 12 H2O → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O
As you can see, water is produced in photosynthesis - along with glucose and oxygen.
Glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2) are the final products of photosynthesis, as can be seen by the equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O => C6H12O6 + 6O2
Plants use up the carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere (that plants and animals exhale when they breathe, or produced by polluting humans) and they produce oxygen, which is required for respiration, and glucose, a vital energy source for plants and animals.

What do producers need to make food?
Photosynthisis
What is photosynthesis made up?
sugar and oxygen
Were in the plant cell does photosynthisis take place?
Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of a plant cell
Example of carbon moving from organic compound to inorganic compound?
Glucose being turned into carbon dioxide during photosynthisis.
What is photosystyes?
Photosynthisis is how plants produce energy or glucose, as they don't eat food like animals. They use water and carbon dioxdie to produce glucose and oxygen.
The products of photosynthisis are the product of?
The main products of photosynthesis are: O2 and Glucose (C6H12O6)
Where does photosynthisis take place?
Photosynthisis takes place in the organell named the chloroplast.
What are phoyosynthisis?
more like what is photosynthisis, photosynthisis is when a plant turns sun into energy, cool huh.
What foof does photosynthisis make?
photosynthisis makes glucose (C6H12O6 is the chemicle formula) for the plant to grow.
What substance is the byproduct of photosynthisis?
There is only one byproduct. it is O2 gas.
What are the products of photosynthisis?
Glucose and oxygen
Is light necessary for photosynthisis?
Yes
What cycle involves photosynthisis?
The Carbon cycle.
What is the plant food made by photosynthisis?
Chlorophyll
What turns energy from sunlight into food?
photosynthisis
What is the process plants us to obtain energy?
photosynthisis
When plants photosynthisis what do they make?
The plant produces oxygen
