Photosynthesis

Here is everything anybody needs to know about photosynthesis:



Just kidding. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy to chemical energy. They store the energy as sugar. Organelles in plant cells, called chloroplasts, are the site of photosynthesis. Within the chloroplasts are thylakoids which contain chlorophyll, the green pigment that gives plants their color. Plants absorb light from the sun in order to perform this. The formula for photosynthesis is 6CO2+6H2O+light---------> C6H12O6+6O2.

This Bamboo plant performs photosynthesis in order get energy.
