Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants create food using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water, primarily occurring in the leaves with chlorophyll. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This process is crucial as it provides food for plants and other organisms, releases oxygen essential for life, and helps maintain the atmospheric balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Subject: Biology

Class: 7th

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants prepare their own food using sunlight, carbon
dioxide, and water. It takes place mainly in the leaves of plants which contain a green pigment
called chlorophyll. The equation of photosynthesis is: 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight → C6H12O6 + 6O2
Importance of Photosynthesis: - Provides food for plants and other organisms. - Releases oxygen
necessary for life. - Maintains balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
