6CO2 + 6H2O + photons —>CGH1206+602 is the chemical equation for what metabolic process?

This is for photosynthesis, which is anabolism.

Explanation:

The photon which represents the packet of energy from the  sun,is used to split water molecules into H+.electrons and oxygen. The Hydrogen ion is used to reduce CO2 to produce CHO, fatty acid and protein in the Calvin cycle.This is photosynthesis.

Therefore, the single reaction is made up of two related reactions, The splitting of water-Photolysis.. which occurs in the daylight.The reaction is therefore called  light dependent stage.

While the reduction of the CO2 with the Hydrogen ion , in the presence of ATPs, which takes place in the dark,called light independent stage.

the principles and empirical processes of discovery and demonstration considered characteristic of or necessary for scientific investigation, generally involving the observation of phenomena, the formulation of a hypothesis concerning the phenomena, experimentation to test the hypothesis, and development of a conclusion that confirms, rejects, or modifies the hypothesis.
