_________________________
Byproduct↓
Oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis and, correspondingly, carbon dioxide the byproduct of respiration.
Formula↓
The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.
Purpose↓
The main purpose of photosynthesis is to convert radiant energy from the sun into chemical energy that can be used for food
Importance↓
The importance of photosynthesis in our life is the oxygen it produces. Without photosynthesis there would be little to no oxygen on the planet.
