Question

Photosynthesis What would happen if Photosynthesis stopped working?

Answer 1

The plant would probably die.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is essential for a plant to live, as it is the way which they make food, so they don't die because of lack of energy.

The photosynthesis equation is:

`6CO_2(g)+6H_2O(l)stackrel("sunlight")stackrel("chlorophyll")->C_6H_12O_6(aq)+6O_2(g)`

So, plants would make glucose (simple sugars), and then turn it into `"ATP"` via a three-step process, which in order is:

• glycolysis

• Krebs cycle

• electron transport chain `("ETP")`
