Detailed explanation-1: -1) Photosynthesis: Plants absorb heat energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is an endothermic reaction. This means it cannot occur without energy (from the Sun). The light required is absorbed by a green pigment called chlorophyll in the leaves.
Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis requires energy, making it an endothermic reaction. Light, generally sunlight, is the source of this energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -What form of energy is needed for the endothermic reaction called photosynthesis? Energy in the form of light is needed for photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-5: -Endothermic reactions are chemical reactions in which the reactants absorb heat energy from the surroundings to form products. These reactions lower the temperature of their surrounding area, thereby creating a cooling effect.
