Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the overall process of photosynthesis, which occurs in plants, algae, and some bacteria. It converts light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.
Recall the general chemical equation for photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This equation shows the reactants and products involved in the process.
Identify the reactants in the photosynthesis equation: carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O), which are used along with light energy to produce the products.
Identify the products in the photosynthesis equation: glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). These are the substances formed as a result of the photosynthesis process.
Conclude that glucose is one of the main products of photosynthesis, as it is the primary form of stored energy produced by the process, along with oxygen as a byproduct.
