Detailed explanation-1: -To perform photosynthesis, plants need three things: carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight. for photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide enters through tiny holes in a plant’s leaves, flowers, branches, stems, and roots. Plants also require water to make their food.

Detailed explanation-2: -The process by which carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight are converted into glucose and oxygen by green plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -The reactants involved in the light reaction are NADP, ADP, and water molecules. After the completion of light reactions, the products obtained are the energy-rich molecules ATP NADPH, and oxygen, the last of which is already considered a by-product of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -The photosynthesis chemical equation states that the reactants (carbon dioxide, water and sunlight), yield two products, glucose and oxygen gas. The single chemical equation represents the overall process of photosynthesis.
