Photosynthesis

Which of the following equations represents the overall chemical reaction for photosynthesis?

• 6O₂+ 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆+ 6O₂

• C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6H₂O→ 6O₂+ 6O₂

• 6CO₂+ 6H₂O→ C₆H₁₂O₆+ 6O₂

• 6O₂ + 6H₂O→ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6CO₂

If the concentration of CO₂ that a plant is exposed to decreases, which of the following would likely happen?

• The rate of photosynthesis would decrease resulting in an increase in glucose production.

• The rate of photosynthesis would decrease resulting in a decrease of O₂ production.

• The rate of photosynthesis would stay the same because CO₂ is a product of photosynthesis.
