Understanding Photosynthesis Process

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates using sunlight absorbed by chlorophyll in chloroplasts. During this process, oxygen is released, and water is absorbed from the soil while carbon dioxide enters through the stomata. The resulting glucose serves as an energy source for growth and development, later being converted into starch.

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their food

During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are utilized to form carbohydrates.

Oxygen is released during photosynthesis, light energy from the sun is absorbed by chlorophyll. Using
chloroplasts

Water from the soil is absorbed by the root hairs and is carried to the leaves.

Carbon dioxide through the stomata of the leaves.

water molecules are split into hydrogen and oxygen.

This hydrogen and carbon dioxide then combine to form carbohydrates

Glucose is the source of energy that provides growth and development.


Later, it is converted into starch
