The two main output products of photosynthesis are oxygen and sugar. Plants use energy from the sun to produce these items from water and carbon dioxide. The oxygen produced is emitted as a waste product, while the sugar is used to produce energy through cellular respiration. read more
The main product of photosynthesis is glucose, which is the molecule that produces energy to run the processes of the cell. Oxygen is mainly a byproduct of the process of photosynthesis. Six molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water are needed to produce one molecule of glucose. read more
During carbon fixation, the three-carbon product of the Calvin cycle is converted into the final carbohydrate product. Factors That Affect the Rate of Photosynthesis Like any chemical reaction, the availability of the reactants determines the amount of products that can be made. read more
