It is the natural process by which green plants and some other organisms prepare their food (Glucose).
It occurs in Chloroplast.
6CO2 + 6H2O -----› C6H12O6 + 6O2

are :
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.
___________________________________
→ 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.

Photosynthesis is important because it produces oxygen as a bi-product which is necassary for living.
Also food is made by the help of this process (Photosynthesis) which is also important for living.
