Step 1photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is the process by which plant convert the light energy from the sun to the chemical energy through the process of respiration  

The reaction of photosynthesis -- 

carbon dioxide + water +energy from light------------------>>>>>     glucose + oxygen

6CO₂+6H₂O→→→ C6H12O6 + 602 

Factor affecting photosynthesis -- 

  • Temperature 
  • Light intensity 
  • CO2 concentration
