Photosynthesis is the process by which the plant takes in Carbon Dioxide, Water and Light from the sun, and creates glucose and oxygen. This occurs in the chloroplasts.
Represented as a chemical equation:
light
C02 + H20 -----> C6H12O6 + O2
Balanced, that would be:
light
6C02 + 6H20 -----> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Glucose is then stored in the cell until needed. During respiration, the mitochondria in the cells breaks down the glucose in a series of chemical reactions. The end result is ATP, which is used as a source of Chemical_energyaround the cell.
So basically, photosynthesis creates organic compounds from inorganic materials, which are broken down through respiration to create energy for the cell.

Of any plants that provide food for humans as a result of photosynthesis?
Plants that provide food for humans as a result of photosynthesis are called autotrophs. They are the primary producers in the food chain.
What process is used by plants to provide food for animals?
Nothing, as plants don't produce food for animals.Plants use photosynthesis to make glucose as food for themselves.Animals then "steal" the plant's food when they eat the plants.
What is the process of making food in plants?
Photosynthesis
What is the name for the process by which plants make their own food?
Oxygen and food is produced through Photosynthesis.

What is it meant by plants are the producers of the world?
They provide there own food source (photosynthesis). which in turn provide food for others, herbivores (plant eaters). which provide for for carnivores (meat eaters)
How can a forest provide with food and air?
Fauna in a forest, like all plants, photosynthesize. Photosynthesis is basically what makes oxygen and the plants sugars (ie: food)
How plants make food?
photosynthesis photosynthesis
Why does chloroplast are present in plants?
That is carry out photosynthesis. It makes food in plants
Were do plants get their food?
Plants get there food from Photosynthesis which is nergy from the sun
What is the process of making food in plants?
Photosynthesis
What processes is involve in the food production of plants?
Photosynthesis is the process that produces the food for the plant.
Which process is the foundation for the food web?
Photosynthesis, because in this food web, plants are the producers. Plants derive their energy from photosynthesis.
What does photosynthesis do for plant cell?
photosynthesis is the source of food for plants
Do plants use photosynthesis or fermination to make food?
photosynthesis
