Equation :

6CO2 + 6H2O -----› C6H12O6 + 6O2

===================================

Raw Materials For Photosynthesis :

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O) are the raw material of Photosynthesis.

Sunlight is need for the Photosynthesis.

Glucose (C6H12O6), Water (H2O) Oxygen (O2) are the products of Photosynthesis.

==================================

Mechanism of Photosynthesis :

→ Light energy is converted into Chemical Energy and the Water moleculesplits into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

→ Light energy of sun is absorbed by Chlorophyll.

→ Carbon-dioxide is reduced to form Glucose. And Oxygen is released into the atmosphere.

==================================

Importance Of Photosynthesis :

Photosynthesis is important because it produces oxygen as a bi-product which is necessary for living.

Also food is made by the help of this process (Photosynthesis) which is also important for living.
