- Plants and other creatures utilize photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy, which is then released to power the organism's activities through cellular respiration.
- This chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules like sugars and starches, which are made from carbon dioxide and water - hence the name photosynthesis, which means "putting together" in Greek.
- The majority of the time, oxygen is discharged as a waste product as well.
- Photoautotrophs include plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, which all perform photosynthesis.
- 6CO2 + 6H2O = C6H12O6 + 6O2 is a typical formula for the photosynthesis process.
- This signifies that light energy collected by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) converts the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, which are the products.
