NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Leaf is a part of the plant that is in charge of making food for the plant. This food-making process is called photosynthesis. The raw materials used in the process are carbon dioxide and water. Chlorophyll in leaves and sunlight help in the preparation of glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -The leaves prepare food for the plants, using water and carbon dioxide in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. This process is called photosynthesis. The prepared food is in the form of glucose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Leaves are the site of the food making process called photosynthesis. In this process, carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll (the green pigment) and light energy are changed into glucose (a sugar). This energy rich sugar is the source of food used by most plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis takes place in the part of a plant cell called a chloroplast. Chloroplasts are found in the cells of leaves. Chloroplasts use chlorophyll to store the food they have created using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.
