Item ID Number	Item Description	How Often the Misconception was Chosen	Select This Item for My Item Bank
EB055001	During photosynthesis, more energy is required to break bonds between molecules of CO2 and H2O than is released as bonds form between molecules of C6H12O6 and O2.	62%
EB018002	The energy required to separate atoms of the reactants of photosynthesis is greater than the amount of energy released when products form.	48%
