Photosynthesis is a process by which phototrophs convert light energy into chemical energy.

The word “photosynthesis” is derîved from the Greek words "phos" (which means “light”) and "σύνθ-εóîς" (which means “combining together.”) And so it means “combining together with the help of light.”

The process of photosynthesis occurs in green plants (the primary producers in a food chain) and a few other autotrophic organisms such as cyanobacteria, purple bacteria and green sulfur bacteria.

Following is the photosynthesis formula:

︎︎︎ 6 CO2 + 6 H2O —> C6 H12 O6 (
\sf\blue{glucose}) + 6 O2 (
\sf\pink{oxygen}).
