The combustion of glucose produces water, carbon dioxide and energy. Plants perform the opposite of this reaction through photosynthesis. Therefore, what is the photosynthesis reaction?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The reaction for photosynthesis is

6CO2 + H2O + sunlight ---> C6H12O6

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the opposite of cellular respiration because the products of cellular respiration are the reactants in photosynthesis (plus sunlight). So the water and carbon dioxide produced in the combustion of glucose is used in the synthesis reaction of photosynthesis.
