Write the balanced chemical equation that represents the process of photosynthesis.

(N/A) Step $1$: Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophs take in substances from the outside and convert them into stored forms of energy.
Step $2$: The balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis is: $6\text{CO}_{2} + 12\text{H}_{2}\text{O} \xrightarrow{\text{Sunlight, Chlorophyll}} \text{C}_{6}\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_{6} + 6\text{O}_{2} + 6\text{H}_{2}\text{O}$.
Step $3$: In this process, carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose (carbohydrate), oxygen, and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
