What is the Purpose of photosynthesis?

Answer 1

Photosynthesis is vital in maintaining life on earth. Basically, it's the process in which carbon dioxide is converted into energy or "organic compounds" like sugar using sunlight. Photosynthesis is not used by humans, but by plants, algae and some bacteria. Once the carbon dioxide has been converted into energy, cellular respiration then converts that into ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) which is essentially the fuel that all living things need to live.

If you were looking for the poop

6H2O+6C02 ---> C6H1206+6O2

All of that basically translates into: six molecules of water plus six molecules of carbon dioxide make/produce one molecule of sugar plus six molecules of oxygen.

Short Answer: It`s the process that captures energy from sunlight to make sugars

that store chemical energy(Biolgy Textbook)

Answer 2

To store the sun's energy as sugar. ...To take in energy from light and to store it chemically, as a sugar molecule, inside the plant. The plant makes the sugar molecule out of CO2 from the air and uses the energy from light to put the molecule together.

Answer 3

The purpose of photosynthesis is to produce energy and keep the cycle of ecology going. Primary producers feed off the energy produced by the sun while consumers feed off the producers. It creates a food chain and continues on throughout the biosphere. Each time the energy is consumed through a food chain, only 10% of the energy is transferred to the next consumer.

Answer 4

To make food and glucose which is a source of energy usable by the cell.

Answer 5

The primary function of the photosynthesis is to produce energy from sunlight.

Answer 6

To give the plant nutriants and energy Co2+H2o Sunlight-Chroraphyll--->Food + o2

Answer 7

The purpose is making food. it requires chloroplasts in plants.

Answer 8

It produces glucose for consumption. It gives oxygen too

Answer 9

To provide food for the plant
