Answer : Photosynthesis is a biochemical process in which plants use energy from the sun to convert carbon dioxide into a usable form of carbon (sugar). The process of photosynthesis is divided into two types of enzyme mediated reactions: light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions

  • In green plants and other creatures, photosynthesis is the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
  • During photosynthesis, green plants gather and use light energy to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic molecules.
  • 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 is the formula for photosynthesis.
  • The reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are changed into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules in this way.
  • Chlorophyll collects light energy and converts it into products (implied by the arrow).
