NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel. These primary producers form the base of an ecosystem and fuel the next trophic levels.

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: -There are four factors which are necessary for the process of photosynthesis, water, carbon dioxide, sunlight, and chlorophyll.

Detailed explanation-4: -Five key factors determine a plant’s ability to photosynthesize: sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, soil organisms, and nutrients.

Detailed explanation-5: -Plants take up the water that they need from the soil through their roots. Carbon dioxide is a gas found in the air; plants can take in this gas through tiny holes in their leaves. Once they have water and carbon dioxide, they can use energy from sunlight to make their food.
