Essential raw materials for photosynthesis are -
carbon dioxide: it is a gas which is released into atmosphere during respiration.
Water: it is another requirement for photosynthesis which is transported upward through xylem tissue to the leaves, from where it reaches photosynthetic cells.
Chlorophyll: it is green pigment in plants which act as catalyst. It is responsible for absorption of sun's light by the plant. The chlorophyll pigments are photoreceptor molecules which play a key role in the photosynthesis process.
Light: light effects photosynthesis with its intensity, duration and quality. In green light the rate of photosynthesis is minimum, while in red or blue light the rate of photosynthesis is maximum.
Hope this answer helps you!!

The process of photosynthesis takes place in the leaf of a plant.
These are the raw materials required for the process of photosynthesis:
-Chlorophyll
-Light
-Carbon dioxide
-water
The process of photosynthesis takes place in the presence of sunlight, water comes from soil taken up by roots and the carbon dioxide from the air and chlorophyll from leaves react to produce sugar, water and molecular oxygen.
The complete balance equation of photosynthesis is
6 CO2 + 6 H2O → C6H12O6 + 6 O2
The byproduct in this reaction is molecular oxygen.
