The picture above demonstrates how plants use sunlight to generate energy.
Photosynthesis is a naturally occurring linear process that begins with the sunlight and carbon dioxide and terminates with the production of sugar, oxygen, and starch. This process has five components and allows plants to transform light energy into chemical energy in the form of sugar.
To begin with, chlorophyll permits the plant to collect sunlight that is in the green spectrum, as well as carbon dioxide through gaps in the leaves' surface. Concurrently, water is pulled up via the roots, where it is mixed with CO2 and the sun's rays to generate sugar, which the plant can use as nutrition.
The results of this chemical reaction are oxygen and water, which are extracted through a process known as transpiration. Water evaporates from the leaves, releasing O2. Any excess sugar is stored as starch in the roots.
