The three end products of photosynthesis are:

  1. Glucose (C6H12O6) — It is used in following four ways:
    1. immediately consumed by the plant cells
    2. stored in the form of insoluble starch
    3. converted into sucrose
    4. used in synthesizing fats, proteins,etc.
  2. Water — can be reutilized in continuance of photosynthesis.
  3. Oxygen — It is used in respiration in the leaf cells. Extra oxygen is released and diffused out in atmosphere.
