Photosynthesis is the process of conversion of radiant or solar energy into chemical energy performed by plants.


In this process, radiant or solar energy converts into chemical energy. The efficiency of agricultural crops directly depends on the rate of photosynthesis. It gives oxygen to the atmosphere for all living organisms. It keeps the balanced level of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the ecosystem. Photosynthesis is the process where solar energy is trapped by chlorophyll to convert carbon dioxide and water to produce food in the form of glucose. Also, it is produced in plants where chlorophyll is present inside the chloroplast as trapping the solar energy initiates the process.
