Answer:
Photosynthesis is a biochemical process by which green plants s5mthesize simple sugar in the presence of sunlight using carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water from the soil. This simple sugar (glucose) is later converted to starch.

The most important factor for photosynthesis is light. The rate of photosynthesis depends on the quantity and quality of light. The chlorophyll molecule in green leaves absorb light, get excited and emit electrons. The emitted electrons are used in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Finally the solar energy is converted into chemical energy and stored in the glucose produced.
