What is photosynthesis
A process where plants convert
carbon dioxide
and
water
into
oxygen
and
glucose
using
light energy
Where does photosynthesis occur
In
chloroplasts
, which contain the pigment
chlorophyll
, that absorbs
light
What type of reaction is photosynthesis
Endothermic
, meaning it takes in
energy
Photosynthesis word equation
Carbon dioxide
+
water
->
