Verified step by step guidance

Understand the process of photosynthesis: Photosynthesis is a biochemical process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. It occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.

Identify the reactants: The main reactants in photosynthesis are carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O). These are absorbed by the plant from the environment.

Recognize the role of sunlight: Sunlight provides the energy needed for photosynthesis. It is absorbed by chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants, which initiates the conversion of CO₂ and H₂O into glucose.

Determine the products: The products of photosynthesis are glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and oxygen (O₂). Glucose serves as an energy source for the plant, while oxygen is released as a byproduct into the atmosphere.

Connect the products to the options given: From the options provided, 'Oxygen & Sugar' is the correct answer, as sugar refers to glucose, which is a product of photosynthesis along with oxygen.
