Photosynthesis

How does the process of photosynthesis in plants provide energy for animals?

• The water and carbon dioxide used in photosynthesis are converted into glucose and ATP for animals.

• The glucose and ATP used in photosynthesis are converted into water and carbon dioxide for animals.

• The glucose and carbon dioxide used in photosynthesis are converted into proteins for animals.

• The oxygen and glucose produced through photosynthesis are converted into lipids for animals.

What is the balanced equation for photosynthesis?

• 6O2 + C6H12O6 → 6H2O + 6CO2 + ATP

• 6CO2 + 6H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6O2

• C6H12O6 + 6CO2 → 6O2 + 6H2O + ATP

• 6O2 + 6H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6H2O
