Photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide + water + sunlight + nutrients → Simple sugar + oxygen (energy) (food)
Some sugars produced during photosynthesis are broken down during respiration to release energy needed by the plant for growth and reproduction. Others are used to make "building blocks" that are combined to make plant cells, hence plant parts. /span> |
