Answer 1

Answer:

the process in which plants makes their food with the help of co2 , water and sunlight.

Answer 2

$\mathfrak{\large{\underline{\underline{Answer :-}}}}$

❍ Most of the energy used by living organisms comes directly from sun.

❍ Plants make sugar (glucose), a complex compound, from carbon dioxide and water, in the presence of chlorophyll by using light energy. This process is called Photosynthesis.

❍ Photosynthesis can be also defined as the process by which green plants make food using carbon dioxide, sun energy and water.

❍ Photosynthesis is a process in which six molecules of carbon dioxide, six molecules of water form one glucose molecule and six molecules of oxygen.

❍ The glucose is then converted into starch and stored in plants.

❍ The chemical reaction in Photosynthesis can be represented as follows :

$\boxed{\sf{6CO_2 + 6H_2O +\xrightarrow{light \: energy} C_6H_12O_6 + 6O_2 \: \: }}$

❍ As seen above equation, carbon dioxide, water and light energy are extremely important for the process of Photosynthesis along with the presence of chlorophyll.
