Photosynthesis is the biochemical procedure in which water is included into organic molecules. In the reaction, the hydrogen atoms from water to the generated glucose and the oxygen atoms from water to the molecular oxygen discharged:

Carbon dioxide + water + light = glucose + molecular oxygen.

Aerobic respiration is an illustration of biochemical reaction in which water is generated:

Glucose + molecular oxygen = carbon dioxide + water.
