Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucose and O₂ are produced as a result of photosynthesis. CO₂ is used as a reactant and is not a product, while chlorophyll is a pigment involved in the process but is not a product. O₂ is produced as a waste product through the process of photolysis or the splitting of water molecules. Glucose is the end product of the Calvin cycle, which is the second stage of photosynthesis.
