Sugar is not needed by photosynthesis. Sugar is the product of photosynthesis.
Sugar and oxygen
Sugar and Carbon Dioxide
Photosynthesis produced sugar, more correctly (CH2O)n.
The sugar made during photosynthesis is important to both plants and animals because it is a source of energy. Sugar is stored in plants or the bodies of animals until it is needed and then converted to an energy.
Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is the chemical needed for photosynthesis - using energy from the sun with carbon dioxide to make sugar.
Photosynthesis; Water+Carbon dioxide------(sunlight, with photosynthesis)---> Glucose (a type of sugar)+ Oxygen 6H2O+6CO2------------>6C6H12O6+ 6O2
the sugar produced by photosynthesis is the plants 'food.' it is the point of the process. plants 'do' photosynthesis to get sugar, which they 'consume' in a way.
CO2 H2O Light
Glucose (sugar) and oxygen are produced. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water. It needs sunlight to proceed.
The sugar created by photosynthesis is called glucose.
The sugar produced during photosynthesis is glucose.
Photosynthetic plants are plants that use photosynthesis, or the process of turning sunlight into sugar, for engergy.
