what do you mean by photosynthesis
Answers
Photosynthesis
is a process used by green plants through which they use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to create their food (sugars) .
Oxygen is released in this process as a by-product .
○Photosynthesis uses sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to produce oxygen, glucose and water.
○The structure of the leaf allows for carbon dioxide and oxygen to enter and leave the leaf, which is where photosynthesis actually takes place.
○The water from the leaves evaporates through the stomata, and filling its place, entering the stomata from the air, is carbon dioxide. Plants need carbon dioxide to make food.
●Photosynthesis is not limited to green plants, it is also a process that occurs in certain algae, specifically blue-green algae and bacteria.

●An example of photosynthesis is how plants convert sugar and energy from water, air and sunlight into energy to grow.
