Question

what best describes the nature of photosynthesis

Answer 1

Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into ...... cannot be metabolized by the Calvin-Benson cycle and represents carbon lost from the cycle. A high ..... "Maximal photosynthetic rates in nature".

Answer 2

$\textbf{Answer :}$


$\huge\textbf{Photosynthesis :}$



It is the natural process by which green plants and some other organisms prepare their food (Glucose).

It occurs in Chloroplast.

$\textbf{Equation :}$

6CO2 + 6H2O -----› C6H12O6 + 6O2
===================================

$\textbf{Raw Materials}$

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O) are the raw material of Photosynthesis. 

Sunlight is need for the Photosynthesis. 

Glucose (C6H12O6), Water (H2O) Oxygen (O2) are the products of Photosynthesis.
==================================

$\textbf{Mechanism or Steps of Photosynthesis}$


→ Light energy is converted into Chemical Energy and the Water molecules splits into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

→ Light energy of sun is absorbed by Chlorophyll.

→ Carbon-dioxide is reduced to form Glucose. And Oxygen is released into the atmosphere.
==================================

$\textbf{Importance of Photosynthesis :}$

Photosynthesis is important because it produces oxygen as a bi-product which is necessary for living.

Also food is made by the help of this process (Photosynthesis) which is also important for living.
