Question

what is mean by photosynthesis​

Answer 1

Answer:

pls mark it as brainliest

Explanation:

the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product.

• 'Photo' means 'light' and 'synthesis' means 'to build'. Thus Photosynthesis literally means 'building up with the help of light'.
• During this process, the light energy is converted into chemical energy.
• Green plants are autotrophic in their mode of nutrition because they prepare their food materials through this process.
• In this process, carbon dioxide combines with water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll to form carbohydrates. During this process oxygen is released as a byproduct.
• Photosynthesis occurs in green parts of plant such as leaves, stem and floral buds.
• Chlorophyll is the primary photosynthetic pigment.
• The end product of Photosynthesis is glucose which will be converted into starch and stored in the plant body.
• Plants take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis; but for it's living plants also need oxygen to carry on cellular respiration.
• The overall equation of Photosynthesis can be given as below:

$\boxed{\boxed{\sf 6CO_2+12H_2O\longrightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6H_2O+6O_2}}$
