If we provide carbon dioxide in which oxygen is labelled as A and water in which oxygen is labelled as B to a plant then, which of the following equations for photosynthesis in that plant should be correct?

6 C O_{2}^{A} + 12 H_{2} O^{B} \to C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}^{A} + 6 H_{2} O^{A + B} + 6 O_{2}^{B}

Solution

The correct option is D $6 C O_{2}^{A} + 12 H_{2} O^{B} \to C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}^{A} + 6 H_{2} O^{B} + 6 O_{2}^{B}$
Oxygen evolved during light reaction comes from $H_{2} O$ and not from $C O_{2}$ . Oxygen of $C O_{2}$ is incorporated in glucose.
