What is the equation for a photosynthesis???????????????

Photosynthesis is a process that transforms the energy of sunlight into chemical energy. It basically consists in the elaboration of sugars from C02 (carbon dioxide ) minerals and water with the help of sunlight. So it is the process of food production by plants. Trees and plants use photosynthesis to feed themselves, grow and develop.

To carry out photosynthesis, plants need chlorophyll, which is a green substance that they have in their leaves. It is in charge of absorbing the appropriate light to carry out this process. In turn, chlorophyll is responsible for the characteristic green color of plants.

Photosynthesis takes place in plant cell membranes. There, photons, the particles that make up sunlight, break up the water molecules acquired by plants by releasing electrons and protons, other particles that in turn cause reactions that produce ATP and NADPH2 (two molecules that serve to store energy). Then, with the carbon dioxide that plants absorb from the atmosphere, they form carbohydrates in which energy is store

So, through photosynthesis, organisms with chlorophyll take in atmospheric CO2 or dissolved in water to form more complex molecules, such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. But during photosynthsis, glucose (C6H12O6) is produced. The function of water in photosynthesis is to supply electrons for these redox reactions, i.e. water acts as a source of electrons. Since the water molecule is a very weak reducing agent, its electrons must be energized by the photons of sunlight. The oxygen released in photosynthesis comes from water and it is a waste product which eventually will be used by other living organisms to breath.
