What is the meaning of photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other things make food.It is an endothermic (takes in heat) process.Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy.

Explanation:(what happens in this process)

-Sunlight energy is converted into chemical energy by using chlorophyll.Gives plants their green color to the plants.

- Chlorophyll absorbs red and blue light and uses the energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into glucose.

- Plants convert sugar and energy from water, air and sunlight into energy to grow

- formula for photosynthesis :  6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2 Carbon dioxide + water + energy

-formation of carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and a source of hydrogen in the chlorophyll-containing cells (as of green plants) exposed to light.

- Plants, algae, and a group of bacteria called cyanobacteria are the only organisms capable of performing photosynthesis .

-  plants breath in carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen.

answer: accepted answer: aquatic animals use the oxygen dissolved in water to carry out respiration. since the amount of dissolved oxygen in water is low as compared to the amount of oxygen in the air, therefore the rate of breathing in aquatic animals is much faster than it is in terrestrial animals.

explanation:

the sun's light combined with the visible wavelenghts form what is called ultraviolet radiation, which are the long waves at the end of a visible light sprectrum.
