Question

Can someone help please?
Describe what happens during photosynthesis.

Answer 1

The cellular respiration process does not need to be included but I need to be as specific as possible. I'm having a hard time condensing the process into a short summary.

Answer 2

Basically, you're building a more complex molecule from simpler ones -- food in plants.
The chemical equation that tells you photosynthesis is: \(\sf \color{blue}{6~CO_2 + 6~H_2O \rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6~O_2 }\)

which basically tells you that carbon dioxide and water goes in (include sunlight --for energy) to get 1 glucose molecule + air (oxygen)
