Most of Earth's photosynthesis is carried out in the ocean by organisms in the Protist Kingdom: seaweed, diatoms, etc.
Photosynthesis takes place wherever there plants, algae, or photosynthetic bacteria and sunlight. More than 50% of the total planetary photosynthesis is believed to take place in the oceans where there are massive numbers of photosynthetic plankton, algae and bacteria. Although land based plants are important, they do not do as much photosynthesis as the ocean-based organisms.
yes it's true
Because of its vast habitaion in the waters of earth it photosynthesizes more than trees and plants and therefore produces more oxygen than them too =] --I think he wants numbers, too.--
All life carries out cellular respiration to release energy. Only autotrophs carry out photosynthesis.*****The photosynthesis reaction is: chlorophyll6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy -------------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

Without photosynthesis, plants would not grow. The formation of plants, starting with ancient algae, started producing the oxygen levels needed to produce all the lifeforms on the planet.

Cyanobacteria carried out photosynthesis, turning water and carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen.
The oxygen in Earth's atmosphere comes from photosynthesis, which is carried out by plants and algae. Earth is the only planet known to have life, which is the only way we know of that would cause a planet to have an oxygen-rich atmosphere. Oxygen can form from the chemical breakdown of water via sunlight, but only in trace amounts.
Cyanobacteria or blue-algae are microbes that produce oxygen through the process of photosynthesis. Some scientists believe that these bacteria were the first to produce oxygen on Earth.
Algae and later plants carried out photosynthesis, which uses sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen. This process removed carbon dioxide from the air and added oxygen. Additional carbon dioxide was removed and locked away in carbonate rocks such as limestone.
