Explanation of

Photosynthesis

Water Uptake
Plants absorb water through their
roots. Water molecules are crucial
for the process of photosynthesis.

Sunlight Absorption
Photosynthesis begins with the
absorption of sunlight by
chlorophyll, a green pigment
present in the chloroplasts of
plant cells.

Carbon Dioxide Intake

Carbon dioxide is taken in
from the air through small
pores called stomata,
primarily located on the
leaves of the plant.

Oxygen Release
Oxygen produced in the
process is released into the
atmosphere as a byproduct of
photosynthesis.

Energy Storage
Glucose, the sugar produced through
photosynthesis, serves as an energy
storage molecule for the plant. It can be
used for immediate energy needs or
stored for later use, contributing to the
plant's growth and development.
