Explain in details the process of photosynthesis

WELL, LET'S GO

The process by which plants make food is called "photosynthesis". The word "photosynthesis" is made up of two words:

"photo" = light

"synthesis" = putting together
Plants take in carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil; put them together (in the presence of light energy and chlorophyll) to produce sugar (glucose) and oxygen.

Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants. Both chlorophyll and light energy need to be present for photosynthesis to take place, but they are not used up in the process.

Thus, the process of photosynthesis can be represented as follows:

carbon dioxide + water chlorophyll
→→→→→→→→
light energy sugar (glucose) + oxygen

Some of the sugar produced during photosynthesis is used by the plant for its life processes (such as growing and reproducing); the excess is converted mainly to starch and stored in various plant parts which may be used as food by animals and humans.

Oxygen produced during photosynthesis replenishes the oxygen that was used up by living things during respiration ...

This cycle of photosynthesis and respiration maintains the balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen on earth.

6 CO2(g) + 12 H2O(l) + photons → C6H12O6(aq) + 6 O2(g) + 6 H2O(l)
carbon dioxide + water + light energy → glucose + oxygen + water. Then that's it.

I hope I have helped. ^.^
