Front

What is photosynthesis?

Back

The process by which green plants use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight, which is essential for the photosynthesis process.

Front

What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy -> C6H12O6 + 6O2.
