I WONDER - What Is Photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is a vital process that allows plants to produce their own food using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. Chlorophyll in the chloroplasts absorbs sunlight, converting it into chemical energy. This energy transforms water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. Photosynthesis occurs in two stages: the light-dependent stage, requiring sunlight, and the Calvin cycle, which can occur without light. This process is crucial for plant growth and, consequently, human survival, as it forms the base of the food chain.
