What is the process that plants use to make their own energy?
Photosynthesis
The number of protons and the number of electrons in an atom
A hydrogen atom is made of one proton and one electron. The proton and electron stay near each other because
Positive and negative charges attract

What is the correct chemical formula for photosynthesis?
a) 6CO2 + 6H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
b) 6CO2 + 6O2 + light --> C6H12O6 + 6H2O
a) 6CO2 + 6H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
6 CO2 + 6 water + light --> sugar + 6 oxygen
Light energy is converted to glucose through the process of
Photosynthesis
