PHOTOSYNTHESIS: Production of Carbon compounds (Glucose) in cells using light energy from the Sun
s
- Light energy from the sun is absorbed by Chlorophyll to produce Glucose which is stored as Starch for growth, and Oxygen as a waste product
- Glucose produced in Photosynthesis is passed down the food chain from one organism to another, hence why Plants are called Producers (bottom of the food chain)
- While Photosynthesis only occurs under the presence of sunlight, aerobic respiration occurs at all times of day and uses Glucose produced from Photosynthesis to produce energy (used for cell growth) and Carbon Dioxide (waste product or used for Photosynthesis)

EQUATION OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS:
Carbon Dioxide + Water → Glucose + Oxygen
6CO2 6H2O C6H12O6 6O2
