C6H12O6 is glucose. When it is used in plants etc it "burns" in oxygen to give carbon dioxide energy and water and is
C6H12O6 + 6 O2 = 6H2O + 6 CO2 + ENERGY
-in effect, it is the reverse of photosynthesis.
Glucose is an organic compound.
The reaction you've provided is a simplified version of cellular respiration process where glucose (C6H12O6) reacts with oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), and energy in the form of ATP. This reaction takes place in the mitochondria of cells and is essential for producing energy for cell functions.
Glucose (C6H12O6) is a carbohydrate that undergoes a chemical reaction known as a combustion reaction when it is oxidized in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water, releasing energy in the process.
H20+CO2---------->Glucose(C6H1206)+O2
The main reactions that occur in mitochondria include the citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle) which generates ATP, fatty acid oxidation to produce energy, and the electron transport chain which creates a proton gradient to drive ATP synthesis. Mitochondria are crucial for cellular respiration and producing the majority of a cell's ATP.

metabolism - photosynthesis is the process of building food ( read amino acids) from simple molecules by capturing energy where as metabolism is the process by which cells break down these amino acids to extract the energy.
Glucose is an organic compound.
the overall reaction/equation is the opposite of photosynthesisC6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy
Carbon, oxygen,and hydrogen Actually it is C6H1206
