What is
photosynthesis ????????????
Answers
Answer:
the process by which green plants turn carbon dioxide and water into food using energy from sunlight
Explanation:
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms' activities.
Photosynthesis is usually represented by the equation 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light --> C6H12O6 + 6 O2. During this process, organisms such as plants go through the light-dependent and light-independent reactions to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugars and oxygen.
Oxygen is a byproduct of photosynthesis and, correspondingly, carbon dioxide the byproduct of respiration
Photosynthesis takes place in two sequential stages:
The light-dependent reactions;
The light-independent reactions, or Calvin Cycle.
