during photosynthesis, sunlight shining on a plant is absorbed. Through several chemical reactions, the plant produces sugar, a high-energy compound, from simpler substances.
The equation that represents the process of
photosynthesis
is: 6CO2+12H2O+light->C6H12O6+6O2+6H2O. Photosynthesis is the
process in plants to make their food. This involves the use carbon dioxide to
react with water and make sugar or glucose as the main product and oxygen as a
by-product.
