Detailed explanation-1: -In the second step of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide from the air enters the leaves through very small openings. Using the previously stored chemical energy, the chloroplasts convert carbon dioxide into glucose [1]. Fructose is also produced during this step. Glucose is then combined with fructose to create sucrose.

Detailed explanation-2: -During photosynthesis, plants trap light energy with their leaves. Plants use the energy of the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into a sugar called glucose. Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose from photosynthesis. Glucose is made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Glucose made by the process of photosynthesis may be used in three ways: It can be converted into chemicals required for growth of plant cells such as cellulose.

Detailed explanation-4: -Green plants manufacture glucose through a process that requires light, known as photosynthesis. This process takes place in the leaf chloroplasts.
