OBJECTIVE FORESTRY

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight which a plant uses to make food. chloroplast: a plastid that contains chlorophyll and is the site where photosynthesis and starch formation occur.

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: -Their roots take up water and minerals from the ground and their leaves absorb a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. They convert these ingredients into food by using energy from sunlight. This process is called photosynthesis, which means ‘making out of light’. The foods are called glucose and starch.
