Which equation BEST describes the energy transforming processes in photosynthesizing leaf cells?
a.C6H12O6+ 6CO2 ---→ATP + 6O2 + 6H2O
b.C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---→ATP + 6CO2 + 6H2O
c.6O2 + 6CO2 + ATP----→C6H12O6 + 6H2O
d.6H2O + 6CO2 + ATP---→C6H12O6 + 6O2

Respuesta :

Answer:

D. 6H2O + 6CO2 + ATP → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process unique to green plants and other organisms, whereby they synthesize their food in form of glucose by combining carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) in the presence of sunlight. Hence, photosynthesis uses sunlight energy (solar) to synthesize energy stored in food (chemical energy).

The photosynthetic chemical equation is as follows:

6H2O + 6CO2 + ATP → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Water and carbon dioxide are reactants alongside ATP produced in the light stage of photosynthesis to yield the products, which are glucose and oxygen.
