Photosynthesis is a very crucial and vital process. It is a process in which sunlight is converted into chemical energy. This process occurs in almost all plants and also some algae. Plants use light energy, carbon dioxide, and water to make sugar (glucose). Photosynthesis takes place in the mesophyll cells of the leaves, as these have chloroplasts which are organelles that contains a high concentration of the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll.
