Question #52d02

Answer 1

`I_n` Photosynthesis,
Heat(Sunlight) is absorbed for preparing Food.
So it is a Endothermic Reaction**.

Explanation:

Endothermic And Exothermic Reactions

• What is Endothermic reaction
  It is the Reaction where heat is absorbed.
• What is Exothermic Reaction
  The Reaction where heat is released or emitted or exerted.

What is Photosynthesis

Plants in the presence of sunlight form organic compounds(nutrients) such as Sugar for its energy consumption.

• It takes `C` and `H` from `CO_2` and `H_2O` and Gives `O_2` (Which is consumed by Us - Our LIfe Source).

• It Uses this `C` and `H` to form Glucose.

• The Photosynthesis is given by the Equation
  `6 CO_2 + 6 H_2O → C_6H_12O_6 + 6 O_2`

GLUCOSE = `C_6H_12O_6`

For the Sake of Simplicity..............

• All plants require sunlight to prepare food.
  The process in which PLANTS prepare food in the presence of sunlight is called Photosynthesis.
