What is the meaning of photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other things make food.It is an endothermic (takes in heat) process.Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy.

Explanation:(what happens in this process)

-Sunlight energy is converted into chemical energy by using chlorophyll.Gives plants their green color to the plants.

- Chlorophyll absorbs red and blue light and uses the energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose.

- Plants convert sugar and energy from water, air and sunlight into energy to grow

- formula for photosynthesis :  6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Carbon dioxide + water + energy

-formation of carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and a source of hydrogen in the chlorophyll-containing cells (as of green plants) exposed to light.

- Plants, algae, and a group of bacteria called cyanobacteria are the only organisms capable of performing photosynthesis .

-  plants breath in carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen.
