55
Write out equations to represent the main reactants and products of photosynthesis and respiration. Answer
56
In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water carbon dioxide and water are combined, using energy from the sun, to create sugars. In respiration, those sugars are burned in the presence of oxygen to produce energy. Carbon dioxide and water are produced as byproducts. Final Jeopardy Answer
