Plants use the energy of the sun to split water (H2O) into Hydrogen and oxygen atoms, the oxygen is then released into the air as a waste product, while the hydrogen is used to make 2 special compounds called ATP and NADPH. hydrogen atoms from NADPH are then combined with carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air to produce glucose
