Answer 1

The products formed during photosynthesis are glucose, oxygen and water.

Explanation:

According to the complete balanced photosynthetic equation:

\[6\mathrm{CO_2} + 12\mathrm{H_2O} \rightarrow \mathrm{C_6H_{12}O_6} + 6\mathrm{O_2} + 6\mathrm{H_2O}\]

Glucose, oxygen, and water are all released as final products.
