Put simply‚ photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Photosynthesis comes from the Greek language and literally means “Light Composition” or “Putting Together Light.” Photosynthesis generally takes place in plants‚ however it also takes place in algae and many species of bacteria. In photosynthesis‚ light energy is converted to chemical energy and the chemical energy is then stored in the form of glucose‚ or sugar. Carbon

Photosynthesis is process by which green plants and certain other organisms use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose. In so doing‚ photosynthesis provides the basic energy source for virtually all organisms. An extremely important byproduct of photosynthesis is oxygen‚ on which most organisms depend. Photosynthesis occurs in green plants‚ seaweeds‚ algae‚ and certain bacteria. These organisms are veritable sugar factories‚ producing millions of
