Which statement correctly describes the flow of energy in photosynthesis?
A Photosynthesis releases energy when carbon dioxide and water combine to form glucose molecules.
B Photosynthesis releases energy when the reactants rearrange and form the bonds in the products,
Photosynthesis stores energy because energy is released when glucose is formed from carbon dioxide and water.
D Photosynthesis stores energy because more energy is stored in glucose than it is in carbon dioxide or water.

Photosynthsis stores energy because more energy is stored in glucose than it is in carbon dioxide or water is the correct answer.

Explanation:

when a reversible reaction is occurring in both directions at the same rate; the products and reactants do not change in concentration. a chemical reaction where the compound is broken into its constituent parts.

the relative atomic mass of an element is the mass of one atom of that element, relative to 1/12th of the mass of a  1212c atom. to convert to an absolute mass in kg, it is necessary to multiply by  1.661×10−271.661×10−27.

the relative atomic mass is roughly equal to the number of neutrons, plus the number of protons, in the nucleus of the atom.

for elements with more than one stable isotope (different types of nucleus with different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons), the quoted mass is usually the average mass, weighted by the relative abundance of the different isotopes.
