The product used by the plants themselves is sugar. Oxygen is merely a byproduct, not used by the plant, but very useful to animals and the ecosystem at large.

Photosynthesis (photo=light, synthesis=putting together), generally, is the synthesis of sugar from light, carbon dioxide and water, with oxygen as a by-product.
Photosynthesis uses the energy of light to make the sugar which is glucose. An over simplified general equation for photosynthesis follows.
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light â C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light energy â Glucose + Oxygen

Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen.however glucose is the main important product and converted to starch and stored while oxygen is expeled as a by-product.The following equetion summarizes the whole process of photosynthesis:
6H2O + 6CO2 ----------> C6H12O6+ 6O2.That is to say
six molecules of water plus six molecules of carbon dioxide produce one molecule of sugar plus six molecules of oxygen.

ther r many products.but they get used in that process itself.major outputs are starch and oxygen.starch is its food and oxygen is the byproduct,which is used by us. refer 11th class text of science for better understanding
