Carbon dioxide is taken in through the leaves of the plant. Energy from the sun is used to extract electrons (in the form of hydrogen ions) from water, and these are added to carbon dioxide (a reduction reaction) to form the monosacchardie glucose--C6-H12-O6.

What are the starting substances in photosynthesis?

The starting substances in photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water. Through the process of photosynthesis, these substances are converted into glucose and oxygen with the help of sunlight and chlorophyll.


What elements helps plants grow?

Carbon dioxide and sunlight help plants grow but without carbon dioxide plants can't do photosynthesis so if there's no carbon dioxide there's no photosynthesis and if the plant can't do photosynthesis it can't use the sunlight and will die.


What is combined with two oxygen atoms and helps plants engage in photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide is combined with two oxygen atoms to help plants engage in photosynthesis. During this process, plants take in carbon dioxide from the air and convert it into sugars and oxygen with the help of sunlight.


Which process in a plant uses up carbon dioxide?

Photosynthesis is the process in a plant that uses up carbon dioxide. During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and convert it into glucose and oxygen with the help of sunlight.


How do plants take in carbon dioxide to carry out photosynthesis?

Plants take in carbon dioxide through tiny openings on their leaves called stomata. The carbon dioxide is then used in the process of photosynthesis, where it is converted into glucose with the help of sunlight and water.


How does a plant take in carbon dioxide to facilitate photosynthesis?

Plants take in carbon dioxide through tiny openings on their leaves called stomata. The carbon dioxide is then used in the process of photosynthesis, where it is converted into glucose with the help of sunlight and water.


Is carbon dioxide used or produced during photosynthesis?

During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is used by plants to produce glucose. The carbon dioxide is taken in through the stomata on the leaves and is converted into glucose with the help of sunlight, water, and chlorophyll.


Carbon dioxide is a product of photosynthesis?

No, carbon dioxide is a reactant in photosynthesis.

What gas is necessary for photosynthesis?

The gas that is necessary for photosynthesis is carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide has a chemical reaction with the water and sunlight to create glucose.


How does photosynthesis help prevent global warm?

Photosynthesis means plants converting carbon dioxide to oxygen, most global warming is cause by carbon dioxide, people only breath oxygen (and water vapor) and carbon dioxide can't get to our lungs. That's why Photosynthesis helps prevent global warming.


An inorganic molecule reguired by green plants for the process of photosynthesis is?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the inorganic molecule required by green plants for the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is converted into glucose in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
