Answer:
- Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other organisms converts light energy into chemical energy .
- Plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to produce oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.
- The leaves of plants are green because of sunlight reflected by a pigment in the leaves known as chlorophyll.
- During this process plants intake CO₂ and H₂O from soil and air.
- Water oxidizes with the plant cell.
- It losses electron during the reduction of carbon di oxide.
- It transform the water into oxygen and carbondioxide into glucose.
- Plant releases oxygen back into the air.
- It stores energy into glucose molecule.
