how photosynthesis works

photosynthesis  Photosynthesis is the combination of carbon dioxide and water, with solar energy, to create carbohydrates, giving off oxygen to the atmosphere as a by-product  The increase in carbon dioxide to the atmosphere is also thought to impact global photosynthesis rates During photosynthesis, plants convert carbon dioxide to

Photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen in the presence of sunlight Carbon The carbon dioxide assimilation reactions of photosynthesis The products of the light reactions, NADPH and ATP, are used to synthesize carbohydrates from

Photosynthesis is the process plants, algae and some bacteria use to turn sunlight, carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen  Photosynthesis takes place in two stages: the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle In the light-dependent reactions, which take place at the
