Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is Photosynthesis. Explanation: Photosynthesis is the process through which green plants synthesize or prepare carbohydrates or food from sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water. Oxygen liberated during photosynthesis comes from the splitting or hydrolysis of water in the green plants.
Detailed explanation-2: -Each cell runs on the chemical energy found mainly in carbohydrate molecules (food), and the majority of these molecules are produced by one process: photosynthesis. Through photosynthesis, certain organisms convert solar energy (sunlight) into chemical energy, which is then used to build carbohydrate molecules.
