Detailed explanation-1: -The main purpose of photosynthesis is to convert radiant energy from the sun into chemical energy that can be used for food.
Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. In a process driven by light energy, glucose molecules (or other sugars) are constructed from water and carbon dioxide, and oxygen is released as a byproduct.
Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert – radiant energy into chemical energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Two Parts of Photosynthesis Photosynthesis takes place in two stages: the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle. In the light-dependent reactions, which take place at the thylakoid membrane, chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight and then converts it into chemical energy with the use of water.
