What is a photosises?
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy, usually from the sun, into chemical energy in the form of glucose. This process primarily takes place in the chloroplasts of plant cells, using chlorophyll to capture light energy. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are used to produce glucose and oxygen, the latter being released as a byproduct. This process is vital for the survival of most life on Earth, as it provides the foundation of the food chain and produces the oxygen we breathe.
