Study Notes
Photosynthesis and Its Importance
- Green plants carry out photosynthesis to synthesize their food.
- Photosynthesis is the primary source of all food on Earth, making it the basis of life.
Energy Source for Photosynthesis
- The primary source of energy used by green plants in photosynthesis is light energy from sunlight.
Role of Sunlight and Raw Materials
- Sunlight provides the energy required for photosynthesis.
- Green plants obtain the raw materials required for photosynthesis from water, carbon dioxide, and minerals from the soil.
Importance of Photosynthesis
- If there were no oxygen to breathe, there would be no life on Earth.
- If there were no green plants on Earth, there would be no food, oxygen, or life.
- Photosynthesis is crucial for all living organisms on Earth as it provides the oxygen we breathe and the food we eat.
