Answer: The products of photosynthesis are glucose and oxygen.
Explanation: Photosynthesis is a process by which plants produce their own food using carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight. Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast, an organelle that contains the chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a green pigment in plants that absorbs sunlight.
During photosynthesis, chlorophyll absorbs light from the sun and conserves it in form of ATP and NADPH with the release of oxygen in light dependent reactions. The ATP and NADPH produced in light dependent reactions are used to drive light independent reactions or carbon fixation reactions in which the ATP and NADPH are used to reduce carbon dioxide to triose sugars, starch, sucrose and other products derived from them.
The overall chemical equation of photosynthesis is given as follows: 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
