Photosynthesis:
It is a process by which plants and other organisms use sunlight, chlorophyll, air and water to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.
It occurs in the cellular level in the leaves of the plant. It is a complex process with two stages.
The main components required for the process are-
- chlorophyll- it is pigment in plants that makes them green and is very essential to perform the photosynthesis process.
- sunlight- the process cannot work without the sun's energy as the initial stage is completely a light dependent process.
- water- it is another important factor which makes the process feasible
- carbon dioxide- this gas is abundantly available in the atmosphere around plant .
Reaction-
6CO2 +6H2O = C6H12O6 +602
carbon water sugar oxygen

photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
