Best Answer

Carbon dioxide, water, and light energy are used to produce glucose and oxygen. The process provides a pathway to turn light energy into chemical energy. This energy is used by all heterotrophs (such as animals, fungi, and many bacteria) to support all cellular functions. In a way, because of photosynthesis, most life on Earth can exist.

Photosynthesis is source of all food which is used by consumers . Initial product of photosynthesis are triose which are converted to hexoses , sucrose , starch and cellulose . All these carbohydrates are direct source of food and energy for animals and Fungi . No animal life would be possible without photosynthesis . Oxygen is by product of photosynthesis . It is utilized by all aerobic organisms during respiration .

Plants take in carbon dioxide and water, they use sunlight (transfer the energy from light) to convert it and produce oxygen and glucose.

How temperature affects photosynthesis not only about its rate?

Photosynthesis happens rapidly when there is sunlight. Sunlight is a main factor necessary for Photosynthesis. So if the temperature is not hot enough, photosynthesis might not happen as rapidly as it happens when the sunlight is directly there.


What organelle does photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in?

Respiration occurs in two compartments - glycolysis in the cytoplasm and the TCA cycle and electron transport chain in the mitochondria. However, cells that are actively photosynthesising do not need to respire because ATP is synthesised in the chloroplast.
