Detailed explanation-1: -photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
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: -Plants carry out photosynthesis only during the day and respiration only at night.
Detailed explanation-4: -This process is called photosynthesis and occurs in the chloroplast of the plant cell. Plants take in carbon dioxide through tiny openings or pores in their leaves called stomata.
