Which of the following equations is the summary of photosynthesis?
A. 6CO2 + 12H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O
B. 6CO2 + H2O + Sunlight→ C6H12O6 + O2 + 6H2O
C. 6CO2 + 12H2O + Chlorophyll + Sunlight→ C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O
D. 6CO2 + 12H2O + Chlorophyll + Sunlight→ C6H12O6 + 6CO2 + 6H2O
Answer:C
Which of the following equations is the summary of photosynthesis?
A. 6CO2 + 12H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O B. 6CO2 + H2O + Sunlight→ C6H12O6 + O2 + 6H2O C. 6CO2 + 12H2O + Chlorophyll + Sunlight→ C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O D. 6CO2 + 12H2O + Chlorophyll + Sunlight→ C6H12O6 + 6CO2 + 6H2O
Explanation: Option a does not show the factors responsible for photosynthesis . Option b) is not a balanced equation. Option d) is wrong as it has CO2 in the products.
