The process of photosynthesis is considered as an oxidation-reduction reaction activated by light absorbed by chlorophyll or certain other substances (e.g., phycocyanin, fucoxanthol), resulting in the evolution of oxygen from water and in the formation of reduced carbon compounds (e.g., carbohydrate) from carbon .

Photosynthesis is a method of transforming light energy into chemical energy by phototrophs, which is later used to fuel cell functions. Chemical energy is stored in the form of sugars, which are generated from carbon dioxide and water.

  • Algae also use photosynthesis to turn solar energy into chemical energy.
  • As a by-product, oxygen is released and light is regarded as a major factor in completing the photosynthesis process.
  • When plants use light energy to turn carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, photosynthesis happens.
  • Microscopic cellular organelles known as chloroplasts are available in leaves.
  • There is a green-coloured pigment called chlorophyll in each chloroplast.
  • Chlorophyll molecules absorb light, while carbon dioxide and oxygen enter via the small pores of stomata found in the epidermis of the leaves.
  • Sugars, including glucose and fructose, are another by-product of photosynthesis.
  • The roots, stems, leaves, fruits, flowers and seeds are then absorbed by these sugars.
  • In other words, plants use these sugars as a source of energy, which allows them to grow.
  • To form more complex carbohydrates such as cellulose and starch, these sugar molecules then bind with each other.
  • Cellulose is known as the structural material used in the walls of plant cells.
