Solution

The correct option is D $O_{2}$
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy.
In plants, energy from sunlight is used to convert $C O_{2}$ and water into chemical energy that is stored in carbohydrates, such as glucose. As a result of this conversion, oxygen is released as a byproduct.
