Question

10.Explain the mechanism of photosynthesis.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Photosynthesis: It is the process by which green plants make their own food from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll and sunlight. ... Absorption of light energy by chlorophyll. Conversion of light energy into chemical energy. Splitting of water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.

The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.
