Best Answer

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.
