Question

1. in photosynthesis, water, carbon dioxide, and light energy react to produce glucose and oxygen. based on the law of conservation of energy, what happened to the light energy in the reaction? select two correct answers.

□ it was converted into carbonic acid.
□ it was converted into chemical energy stored in
□ it was destroyed.
□ it was neither created nor destroyed.
□ it was changed into carbon dioxide gas.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction like photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, light energy is converted into chemical - energy stored in glucose.

Answer:

It was neither created nor destroyed.
It was converted into chemical energy stored in glucose.
