Question

(d) What is photosynthesis? Describe how it occurs.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis takes place inside plant cells in small objects called chloroplasts . ... Plants get carbon dioxide from the air through their leaves, and water from the ground through their roots. Light energy comes from the Sun. The oxygen produced is released into the air from the leaves.
