Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process by which carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight are converted into glucose and oxygen by green plants.
A
glucose
B
cellular respiration
C
photosynthesis
D
phloem
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is the process that plants use in the presence of sunlight to convert carbon dioxide taken in by their leaves and water taken in through the roots to produce oxygen and sugar (glucose). This process takes place in the chloroplast of the plant cell with the presence of the green pigment of chlorophyll.

Detailed explanation-3: -In photosynthesis, solar energy is harvested as chemical energy in a process that converts water and carbon dioxide to glucose. Oxygen is released as a byproduct.

Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis is the process in which solar energy is trapped by chlorophyll to convert carbon dioxide and water to produce food in the form of glucose. It is produced in plants where chlorophyll is present inside the chloroplast as trapping the solar energy initiates the process.

Detailed explanation-5: -The process in which carbon dioxide reacts with water in presence of chlorophyll and sunlight to produce carbohydrates (glucose) and oxygen is known as photosynthesis. New products (glucose and oxygen) are obtained during photosynthesis, thus it is a chemical change.
