For every six molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2) taken in during the process of photosynthesis, one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) is produced. This means that six molecules of CO2 are required to produce one molecule of glucose.

Which molecules are made when plants take in carbon dioxide, sunlight and oxygen during photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.


Is carbon dioxide made up of three elements?

no,carbon dioxide is made up of oxygen and carbon


Is carbon dioxide CO2 a molecule and is oxygen a molecule too?

They are both made out of molecules: Carbon dioxide = CO2-molecules, Oxygen = O2-molecules.

Is water and carbon dioxide made during photosynthesis?

Yes.


What is used and what is made in photosynthesis?

Carbon Dioxide + Water = Oxygen + Glucose


How photosynthesis and cellular respiration interact in a plant cell?

The products of photosynthesis are used as the reactants for cellular respiration, and vice versa.Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) to create organic molecules and oxygen (O2).In turn, cellular respiration takes those two products (oxygen and organic molecules) to create carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).


How many molecules of carbon dioxide are used up by the plant in producing each molecule of oxygen?

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)


Is carbon dioxide made or used up in photosynthesis?

No, carbon dioxide is used during photosynthesis. It is necessary for the Calvin-Benson cycle because it is attached to RuBP to start the cycle. This cycle ultimately produces glucose. However, carbon dioxide is made as a by-product of cellular respiration.


Is oxygen is made during photosynthesis?

Yes, Oxygen is made during Photosynthesis The Formula goes: Carbon Dioxide + Water -------- Glucose + Oxygen


Is glucose made of carbon dioxide?

Glucose is not made of carbon dioxide. Glucose is a simple sugar molecule composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. The carbon atoms in glucose are typically derived from carbon dioxide during the process of photosynthesis in plants.
