Solution

Sugar is made through photosynthesis by a chemical reaction within the plant’s cell. The chemical reaction that produces sugar is powered by the sun’s energy. Carbon dioxide, $C O_{2}$ , is absorbed by the plant through the stomata (small openings on the underside of the plants leaves) and water, $H_{2} O$ , which is absorbed through the root hairs are combined together in a chemical reaction, which produces glucose. The chemical formula for the process is as follows:
$6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + l i g h t e n e r g y \to C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6 O_{2}$
