Answer 2

Answer:

The process of photosynthesis converts light energy into chemical energy.

Hence, x = light energy and y = chemical energy.

Photosynthesis is a process through which plant (autotrophs) produces its own food.

The three steps involved in photosynthesis are:

• The absorption of light energy by chlorophyll.
• The conversion of light energy into chemical energy and breaking down of water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.
• Reduction of carbon dioxide to carbohydrates.

The equation for photosynthesis is:-

12 H2O + 6 CO2 ---(Chlorophyll and Sunlight)---> C6 H12 O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O
