Photosynthesis is useful in three respects.
1. It is the only process that convert simple elements (carbon dioxide and water) with the aid of sunlight into glucose and Oxygen. This provides food for the plant and in turn food for animals; both of which are then eaten by people.
2. People and animals benefit directly from the products of plants (without photosynthesis no plants): foods, drink, building materials, fuel, medicine.
3. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of animal respiration, plants convert the Carbon dioxide back into breathable Oxygen (as a byproduct) - without plants we eventually would not be able to breath.

Why are pigments needed for photosynthesis?
Pigments are needed because they are useful to autotrophs and plants. Pigments are used to capture the sunlight's energy.
What two wavelengths of light are least and most useful to photosynthesis?
Red light and blue light.Photosynthesis is not efficient under green light.
Besides food what other materials are useful to humans that are products of photosynthesis?
Clothing, Oil, plastics, Lumber, bitumen, furniture, As amater of fact without it we would not have anything as photosynthesis is our only usefull link to the suns energy.
Photosynthesis produces what?
Photosynthesis produces glucose (C6H12O6) which is required by organisms for respiration, it also gives off bi-products of O2 and water, the oxygen is released into the atmosphere or recycled by the plant in its own respiration reactions.
Name the gas made in photosynthesis?
Human beings breath in oxygen, and breath out CO2. The plant's leaves, when making photosynthesis, use CO2 and a few other things to make photosynthesis. When finished with making photosynthesis, the leaves release some oxygen, which is the gas we use to breathe. Thus, oxygen is the useful gas made by photosynthesis.
Is photosynthesis useful or harmful and why?
Photosynthesis is very useful. It feeds directly or indirectly every organism on planet,except few bacteria.
Is photosynthesis useful?
Yes, it provides nearly all of the oxygen on our planet
How are mango leaves useful?
For the mangotrees photosynthesis perhaps?
The energy of wavelengths that appear is least useful to photosynthesis?
green
What useful waste products is made in photosynthesis?
Oxygen and glucose.
Why is sunlight useful for photosynthesis?
sunlight is usefull for photosynthesis because it helps to make food to plants for growing their own...
What is the color of light that is the least useful to plans during photosynthesis?
red and blue light is most useful. But others are not.
Why is a variegated leafed plant useful for demonstrating that chlorophyll is needed for photosynthesis?
Variegated leafed plant is useful for demonstrating that chlorophyll is needed for photosynthesis because variegated leaf is a plant which uses chlorophyll to absorb light so it can get its color
Why is a variegated- leaf plant useful for demonstrating that chlorophyll is needed for photosynthesis?
Variegated leafed plant is useful for demonstrating that chlorophyll is needed for photosynthesis because variegated leaf is a plant which uses chlorophyll to absorb light so it can get its color
How chloroplast is useful for plants?
Chloroplast contain chlorophyll which traps sunlight and allows photosynthesis to occur
Are chemical reactions useful?
yes some chemical reactions are harmful to us. as digestion of food, photosynthesis, decomposition of organic waste are some examples of the useful chemical reactions.
Why are pigments needed for photosynthesis?
Pigments are needed because they are useful to autotrophs and plants. Pigments are used to capture the sunlight's energy.
