Solution

The correct option is C $6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + e n e r g y$
The energy stored in carbohydrate molecules during photosynthesis is released during cellular oxidation of carbohydrates into $C O_{2}$ and $H_{2} O$ . This is called respiration which may be shown as below
$C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 602 \to 6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + E n e r g y$
