define photosynthesis? ​

Explanation:

Paradoxical is an adjective that describes a paradox, something with two meanings that don't make sense together. Its Greek roots translate to “contrary opinion,” and when two different opinions collide in one statement or action, that's paradoxical.

$\red{ \longmapsto\:}$ photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy.

$\red{ \longmapsto\:}$ 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.

$\qquad \color{Purple} \mathcal{\colorbox{orange} {\colorbox{white} {6CO2 + 6H2O → \: C6H12O6 + 6O2}}}$

$\red{ \longmapsto\:}$ 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.
