-Water -Oxygen -Sugars -Carbon Dioxide -Light Products: -Light -Water -Sugars -Carbon Dioxide -Oxygen Out of these, what are the reactants of photosynthesis and what are the products? *of photosynthesis and cellular respiration Title: What are the correct reactants and products of photosynthesis and cellular respiration? Post by: microB on Sep 24, 2012 Photosynthesis:
Reactants --> Water, Light, Carbon Dioxide Products ---> Oxygen, Sugars Cellular Respiration: Reactants --> Oxygen, Sugars Products --> Carbon Dioxide, Water, Light Photosynthesis' reactants and products are just the switched version of cellular respiration, and vice versa. By 'light' for cellular respiration, I'm assuming it just means energy. The equation: [ Photosynthesis ] 6CO2 ( Carbon Dioxide ) + 6H2O ( Water ) + Light Energy = C6H12O6 ( Sugar ) + 6O2 ( Oxygen ) + Energy [ Cellular Respiration ] |
