Answer:

A. Six molecules of carbon dioxide plus six molecules of water plus light energy converts to six molecules of oxygen plus sugar.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process through plants synthesize their own food with the help of sunlight. In this process, light energy from sun is converted into chemical energy through a series of reactions which is stored in the form of food.

In the process, 6 molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2) and 6 molecules of water (H2O) react in the presence of sunlight to produce 1 molecule of glucose sugar. Apart from glucose, 6 molecules of oxygen are also produced during photosynthesis.

A balanced chemical reaction for photosynthesis is as follows :

               

                                          Sunlight

6CO2    +              6H2O  —---------> C6H12O6 +     6O2.

(carbon                (water)                  (glucose)       (oxygen)
