Photosynthesis converts CO2 and H2O into sugar and releases oxygen. 6H2O(l) + 6CO2(g) --> C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g). You see that you are going to have to ask the person posing this question exactly what they mean by "main raw material" because the balanced equation shows that the same number of water and carbon dioxide molecules are participating. If the word "main" means "heaviest" to that person, then, carbon dioxide molecules, weighing 44 g/mol and water molecules weighing 18 g/mol. would mean that the heavier component would be carbon dioxide.
I believe that I would argue that no type of photosynthesis would proceed without light so, the main raw material is light energy.
This is one of those questions for which there is no perfectly correct answer. Getting a strong argument from you is the goal. Be sure you are able to back up your answer.

Is light energy a raw material or a end product in photosynthesis?
Sunlight is neither a raw material nor a product. It is a natural phenomenon.
Is water cycle part of photosynthesis?
No it does not, But water is a raw material.
What is petroleum's main use?
Petroleum is the raw material for the petrochemical industry or it is used as fuel.
What is used in the process of photosynthesis raw materials or ingredients?
raw materials. Photosynthesis uses sunlight to produce energy.
What is waters role in light reaction of photosynthesis?
water is a raw material. It is using for release electrons.
What raw material is not used in photosynthesis?
Glucose
Is light energy a raw material or a end product in photosynthesis?
Sunlight is neither a raw material nor a product. It is a natural phenomenon.
What compound is used by plants as a raw material to carry out photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide (and water).
Raw material for photosynthesis are?
CO2 H2O Light
What is a material for photosynthesis?
Those are are raw materials. CO2 andH2O are raw materials.
What compound is a raw material in the dark phase of photosynthesis?
It is oxygen
Which raw material is required to carry out photosynthesis?
CO2+H2O
What is the raw material in the process of photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide and Water
Is water cycle part of photosynthesis?
No it does not, But water is a raw material.
What does a sodium bicarbonate solution provide in the process of photosynthesis?
it provides CO2, a raw material for photosynthesis.
What are raw materials the photosynthesis?
The raw materials used in photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water.
Is carbon dioxide a product or reactant?
Carbon dioxide, in photosynthesis, is a reactant, or "raw material" and in cellular respiration, is a product or end product, so it is really either, but the answer to the question according to the category is a "raw material."
