Photosynthesis is a very complex process performed by plants.

Overall, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and the presence of light allows plants to form glucose (or other organic compounds) and release oxygen.

What combines carbon dioxcide and water and traps energy in a cell?

Photosynthesis combines carbon dioxide and water, using sunlight to trap energy in the form of glucose in a cell.


What type of respiration are carbon dioxide water and energy the products of?

The process of (aerobic) cellular respiration combines a carbohydrate with oxygen to release energy. This oxidation reaction is the "reverse" of photosynthesis.


Plants need this gas for photosynthesis?

Plants take in carbon dioxide and, through photosynthesis, produce oxygen.


What is the reactants for photosynthesis?

carbon dioxide and water (with sunlight and chlorophyll - in chloroplasts)


How are carbon dioxide and photosynthesis different?

Carbon dioxide is a chemical containing carbon and oxygen, and photosynthesis is the process by which most plants get energy. Photosynthesis requires light, water, and CO2.


What products link up during photosynthesis?

During photosynthesis, the carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air combines with water (H2O) to produce glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2) as byproducts. Glucose is used as energy by the plant and oxygen is released into the atmosphere.


Which process produces water carbon dioxide and energy for an organism?

Photosynthesis is the process that produces water, carbon dioxide and energy.


Where does a photoautotroph get its energy and carbon?

A photoautotroph gets its energy initially from light, and its carbon from carbon dioxide.


Do plants require carbon dioxide for photosynthesis?

Yes, plants require carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, a process in which they convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight as energy.


During photosynthesis plants use what as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy?

During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (CO2) as a carbon source to produce sugars for energy. Carbon dioxide enters the plant through small openings on the leaves called stomata and is converted into sugars through the process of photosynthesis.


What is the energy that joins carbon dioxide and water?

Energy source is sun. It combines with results.


What is the word formula for photosynthesis?

Energy + water + carbon dioxide = sugar/food + oxygen
