Unit 6 Plant Processes

describe photosyntheisis.

• Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose molecules.
• Photosynthesis is the process by which animals convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose molecules.
• Photosynthesis is the process by which fungi convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose molecules.
• Photosynthesis is the process by which rocks convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose molecules.
