Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to convert light into food. During this process, plants create carbohydrates starting with only carbon dioxide and water. Sunlight is what makes photosynthesis possible.
process which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to create foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment (chlorophyll) and generates oxygen as a secondary (byproduct) product.
