Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The process is carried out by plants, algae, and some types of bacteria, which capture energy from sunlight to produce oxygen (O2) and chemical energy stored in glucose (a sugar).
Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis is the process in which light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of sugars. In a process driven by light energy, glucose molecules (or other sugars) are constructed from water and carbon dioxide, and oxygen is released as a byproduct.
Detailed explanation-3: -Green plants synthesise sugars during the process of photosynthesis and the most commonly synthesised sugar is glucose. Glucose is converted to sucrose for transportation all over the plant body.
