I wonder photo synthesis is a process plant use to make their own food. This process takes place in the leaves of plants without photosynthesis plants were not be able to grow plants need four elements to be able to photosynthesize without them photosynthesis cannot occur chlorophyll is a green pigment found in the chloroplast of the plant plural class are tiny structures found inside the leaf cells of a plant chlorophyll gives a plant their green color and helps them absorb energy from the Sun chlorophyll converts light energy into chemical energy a plant absorbs water through its roots and this water travels up a stem of a plant and into the leaves.
Carbon dioxide from the air and does through small holes or Paws which are known as stomata in the leaves of a plant now that all the elements have made the way to the leaves of the plant photosynthesis can take place the energy absorbed by the chlorophyll is used to turn the water in the leaf into hydrogen and oxygen. The oxygen is released and the hydrogen and carbon dioxide are used to form food for the plant. This food is known as glucose. This glucose can be stored in the leaves roots or fruit of the plant for later use photosynthesis can happen in two stages a light dependent Sage or a non light dependency the light dependent stage of photosynthesis happens during the day as it must have sunlight the non.
Dependent stage or the dark stage is known as the Calvin cycle and it can happen at night as it doesn’t need sunlight without photosynthesis. We humans would not be able to survive because of the plants can feed they will die. And if the plants die, we will have no food to eat.
