π Biology Notes: Photosynthesis (Easy Revision)
π· What is Photosynthesis?
✅ Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants make their food using sunlight.
✔️ Definition:
Plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food (glucose) and release oxygen.
π· Word Equation
Carbon dioxide + Water + Sunlight → Glucose + Oxygen
π CO₂ + H₂O + Sunlight → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂
π· Where does it happen?
✅ In the chloroplasts of plant cells (contain green pigment chlorophyll).
π· Why is it important?
✔️ Makes food for plants and animals
✔️ Produces oxygen needed for breathing
✔️ Removes excess CO₂ from air
π· Factors Needed
✅ Light: Sunlight provides energy
✅ Water: From soil through roots
✅ Carbon Dioxide: From air through tiny holes (stomata)
✅ Chlorophyll: Green pigment that absorbs sunlight
π· Easy Tip
π “Plants eat sunlight and breathe out oxygen.”
✅ Final Words
Revise definition, equation, and importance of photosynthesis daily. Diagrams and equations are important for your Biology exams.
