The Carbon in Glucose made by plants comes from the Carbon in the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) gas in the air.
Carbon dioxide.
The carbon dioxide in the air that the plant takes in through it's stomata.

No they do not because to produce plant food, glucose, with a chemical formula of C6 H12 O6, because CO2 or carbon dioxide is what provides the plant with the carbon atoms it needs to make glucose
Glucose is another form or type of sugar compound. The chloropasts inside a plant use the compound chlorophyll and combine it with carbon and water to create glucose molecules in order to sustain (feed) its self

Carbon dioxide levels influence how many sugars(glucose) a plant can produce greatly. This is because 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide will release a sugar through series of reactions. So if you have many carbon dioxide molecules it makes it a lot easier for a plant or any other photoautotroph.
enzyme-assisted anaerobic process that breaks down one six-carbon molecule of glucose to two three-carbon pyruvates

At least sixthis is because photosynthesis uses Carbon Dioxide, Water and Sunlight, to produce glucose. A glucose molecule is made of 6 carbon, 6 oxygen, and 12 hydrogen atoms. Since carbon dioxide is the only molecule in photosynthesis containing carbon atoms, and it only contains one per molecule, you would need a minimum of six molecules of it combined with six molecules of water in order to produce glucose. (with an extra 12 oxygen atoms)
The 3 materials needed for photosynthesis are water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight. These 3 materials combined enable the plant to make a sugary substance known as glucose. 6 molecules of water+6 molecules of carbon dioxide=1 molecule of sugar+6 molecules of oxygen* *=The plant doesn't need the oxygen so it releases it into the air. That's how we get our oxygen. :)
sucrose is made from equal parts of glucose and fructose. is occurs naturally in land plants, which include sugarcane, sugar beet and sugar maple.
