photosynthesis in plants

the formula of photosynthesis
photosynthesis is just a Greek meaning of light putting together to make food is which a process that converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds, especially sugars, using the energy from sunlight.Photosynthesis occurs in plants, algae.  In plants, algae and , photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water, releasing oxygen as a waste product. this is vital for life on Earth as it can maintain the normal level of oxygen in the atmosphere, nearly all life either depends on it directly,or indirectly source of the energy in their food.Although photosynthesis can happen in different ways in different species, some features are always the same. For example, the process always begins when energy from light is absorbed by proteins called photosynthetic reaction centers held inside the chloroplast which contain chlorophylls.
