Plants don't combine hydrogen and carbon dioxide directly; if they did (and did so in a 1-to-1 ratio), the result would be formaldehyde.

Instead, plants combine carbon dioxide and water in such a way as to produce carbohydrates (particularly glucose) and oxygen in a multi step complex synthetic process.

Plants combine carbon monoxide and water to make what substance?

Plants combine carbon dioxide and water, not carbon monoxide, through the process of photosynthesis to produce glucose and oxygen. The glucose serves as an energy source for the plant, while oxygen is released into the atmosphere as a byproduct. This process is essential for the growth of plants and contributes to the Earth's oxygen supply.
