Oxygen is a primary byproduct of photosynthesis, as plants convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen during this process [1], [2]. Specifically, the light reaction of photosynthesis involves the breakdown of water molecules to release oxygen [3], and oxygen is also a constituent element of the glucides produced during the process [4].

claimPhotosynthesis is the process by which plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into organic matter and oxygen, consisting of a light reaction and a dark reaction.
referenceThe light reaction of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplast’s cyst-like membrane, where photosynthetic pigments absorb light energy, excite electrons, and produce ATP and NADPH, while water molecules are broken down to release oxygen.
