photosynthesis is how plants make their own food, using carbon dioxide, sunlight, and water. They produce glucose and release oxygen into the Earth.

# data[].attributes.body
Photosynthesis is when plants or bacteria use light energy to create carbohydrates and oxygen from water and carbon dioxide.

# data[].attributes.body
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy (usually from the sun) into chemical energy stored in glucose (a type of sugar).

🔬 What Is Photosynthesis?

At its core, photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that happens in the chloroplasts of plant cells. It uses:

Sunlight

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the air

Water (H₂O) from the soil

These inputs are turned into:

Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) – a sugar used for energy

Oxygen (O₂) – released into the air as a byproduct

Chemical equation:

6CO2+6H2O+light energy→C6H12O6+6O26CO_2 + 6H_2O + \text{light energy} \rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_26CO2​+6H2​O+light energy→C6​H12​O6​+6O2​

🌱 What Does It Do?

Photosynthesis:

Creates food (glucose) for the plant to grow, reproduce, and survive

Stores energy in a usable form

Releases oxygen into the atmosphere

🌍 Why Is It Important?

1. Foundation of the food chain
Almost all living organisms rely on the sugars produced by photosynthesis, either directly (plants) or indirectly (animals that eat plants).

2. Oxygen production
It produces the oxygen we breathe — without it, life as we know it wouldn't exist.

3. Carbon dioxide reduction
It helps remove CO₂ from the atmosphere, playing a key role in controlling Earth's climate and combating global warming.

4. Fuels and materials
Photosynthesis is the original source of energy for fossil fuels, and it provides biomass for energy and materials.

In short:
Photosynthesis powers life on Earth — it's how the planet turns light into life. 🌞➡🌿➡🌎

Photosynthesis is how plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make their own food and release oxygen. It matters because it gives us the oxygen we need to breathe and helps feed almost all living things.
