What is necessary for photosynthesis?
A
water
B
sunlight
C
chlorophyl
D
carbon dioxide
E
al of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chlorophyll, sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water are the necessary conditions required for photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -To perform photosynthesis, plants need three things: carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are four factors which are necessary for the process of photosynthesis, water, carbon dioxide, sunlight, and chlorophyll.

Detailed explanation-4: -Chlorophyll’s job in a plant is to absorb light-usually sunlight. The energy absorbed from light is transferred to two kinds of energy-storing molecules. Through photosynthesis, the plant uses the stored energy to convert carbon dioxide (absorbed from the air) and water into glucose, a type of sugar.

Detailed explanation-5: -Photosynthesis is the process of synthesis of food by plants using carbon dioxide and water in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. Oxygen (O2) is released during the process as a waste product. Hence, oxygen is not essential for the process of photosynthesis.
