Answer:
B.
Explanation:
The two reactions shown in the attached image depicts the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Photosynthesis is the process whereby autotrophic organisms use CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) in the presence of sunlight to make glucose (C6H12O6). The equation is as follows:
6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight → C6H12O6 + 6O2
On the contrary is the process of cellular respiration, which involves the breakdown of glucose (sugar) in order to release energy (ATP). The equation is as follows:
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
According to this question, the option B which says that "Sugar is broken down to release energy" is CORRECT.
