The raw materials required for photosynthesis are CARBON DIOXIDE and WATER.
Photosynthesis
- Preparation of food by the Green Leaves of a plant from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of Sunlight and chlorophyll is called photosynthesis.
- Photosynthesis occurs mostly in leaves.
- Leaves are called the food factories of plants.
- The process of photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts containing chlorophyll.
6CO₂ + 12H₂O → (sunlight/chlorophyll) C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6H₂O + 6O₂
- Carbon dioxide is obtained from the atmosphere through small openings for stomata in the underside of the leaves.
- Roots of the plants absorb water along with minerals from the soil and transport them to the leaves for photosynthesis.
- Chlorophyll is a green pigment and is usually present in the leaves in structures called chloroplasts.
- Sunlight is the source of energy & chlorophyll traps this energy.
