What is the correct equation for photosynthesis?

• CO₂ + light + H₂O → O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆

• O₂ + H₂O → CO₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆

• CO₂ + O₂ + light → H₂O + C₆H₁₂O₆

• H₂O + light → CO₂ + O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

• Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in cellular respiration to produce ATP.

• Cellular respiration produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in photosynthesis to produce ATP.

• Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are unrelated processes that occur in different organisms.

• Photosynthesis occurs only at night, while cellular respiration occurs during the day.

What do plants release as a byproduct of photosynthesis?

• Carbon Dioxide

• Oxygen

• Nitrogen

• Glucose

What is the role of chloroplasts in plant cells?

• Site of cellular respiration
