HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -In photosynthesis, autotrophs use energy from the sun to convert water from the soil and carbon dioxide from the air into a nutrient called glucose. Glucose is a type of sugar. The glucose gives plants energy. Plants also use glucose to make cellulose, a substance they use to grow and build cell walls.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthetic autotrophs capture light energy from the sun and absorb carbon dioxide and water from their environment. Using the light energy, they combine the reactants to produce glucose and oxygen, which is a waste product. They store the glucose, usually as starch, and they release the oxygen into the atmosphere.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most life on Earth depends on photosynthesis. The process is carried out by plants, algae, and some types of bacteria, which capture energy from sunlight to produce oxygen (O2) and chemical energy stored in glucose (a sugar).

Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis is a process that involves making glucose (a sugar) and oxygen from water and carbon dioxide using energy from sunlight. Autotrophs are able to manufacture energy from the sun, but heterotrophs must rely on other organisms for energy.

Detailed explanation-5: -autotrophs are plants they utilise sun’s energy and simple compounds like carbon dioxide and water to store energy in food (glucose and starch). They are not dependent on other organisms for energy and instead directly obtain it from sunlight.
