What is photosynthesis?
A
The process plants use to turn carbon dioxide and water into food.
B
The process plants use to chlorophyll and sunlight into air.
C
The process plants use to turn sunlight and chlorophyll into soil.
D
The process plants use to turn chocolate and milk into chocolate milk.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the air and soil. Within the plant cell, the water is oxidized, meaning it loses electrons, while the carbon dioxide is reduced, meaning it gains electrons. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Photosynthesis starts when chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight. Green plants use this light energy to change water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and nutrients called sugars. The plants use some of the sugars and store the rest. The oxygen is released into the air.

Detailed explanation-3: -(i) Photosynthesis: The process by which green leaves prepare their own food by using carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll is called photosynthesis.
