Answer:
Equation 3 = Sunlight + Carbon Dioxide + Water = Sugar + Oxygen
Explanation:
The photosynthesis equation is as follows: 6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Carbon dioxide + water + energy from light produces glucose and oxygen.
In Simple Terms:
Energy (Sunlight) + CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) + H2O (Water) = Glucose (Sugar) + Oxygen
