Question

List the event that happens during the process of photosynthesis

Answer 1

Answer:

Animals need to eat food to get their energy. But green plants and algae do not. Instead they make their own food in a process called photosynthesis. Almost all life on Earth depends upon this process. Photosynthesis is also important in maintaining the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

These are the things that plants need for photosynthesis:

carbon dioxide

water

light (a source of energy)

These are the things that plants make by photosynthesis:

glucose

oxygen

Here is the word equation for photosynthesis:

carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen

Photosynthesis takes place inside plant cells in small objects called chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain a green substance called chlorophyll. This absorbs the light energy needed to make photosynthesis happen. Plants and algae can only carry out photosynthesis in the light.
