Solution

The correct option is A Glucose and oxygen
$∙$ Photosynthesis is the process by which plants synthesise their own food.
$∙$ Carbon dioxide and water are utilised in this process in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. Simple sugars and carbohydrates such as glucose ( $C_{6} H_{12} O_{6})$ are formed as a result. Oxygen is released as byproduct.
