Given the equation: 6CO\(_2\) + 6H\(_2\)O → C\(_6\)H\(_{12}\)O\(_6\) + 6O\(_2\) {Under sunlight & Chlorophyll) The process represented by the above equation is?
- Aproteinsynthesis
- Brespiration
- Cphotosynthesis
- Dtranspiration
- Etranslocation
Explanation
The given equation, 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ (under sunlight & chlorophyll), represents the process where carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose (food) and oxygen using light energy. This is the definition and chemical equation for photosynthesis.
