What makes photosynthesis possible?

Answer 1

Photosynthesis is one of the most important natural processes in the world.

This process mainly takes place in the leaves, and is the entire point of leaves. And the 2 main ingredients are light and carbon dioxide. (The gas that we exhale)

Every single plant on the planet has been found to photosynthesise. Because this is the plants method of making food out of nutrients in the soil. Which is a long way off the ancient theory that plants actually eat the soil they are planted in!

The carbon dioxide in absorbed through tiny pores in the leaves called stomata. This gas then diffuses through to the rest of the plant cells, including the chloroplasts which you can actually see moving underneath a VERY high tech microscope.

The chemical reaction between the light found from the sun, (or an artificial light source) And the carbon dioxide makes the perfect plant food. And funnily enough the plants waste product is oxygen. Which makes up the air WE breathe!

Answer 2

Photosynthesis is made possible by the presence of chlorophyll in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight, which provides the energy needed to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process is essential for plants to produce their own food and release oxygen into the atmosphere.

Answer 3

Photosynthesis is what makes it possible for cellular respiration. This is what causes more cells.
