PHOTOSYNTHESIS
By: Felipe Sanabria
WHAT IS PHOTOSYNTHESIS
    is a process used by plants and other organisms
    to convert the light energy captured from the sun
    into chemical energy that can be used to fuel the
    organism's activities.
DIAGRAM
PROCESS
 Plants take in carbon dioxide from the air and
  water from the soil; put them together to produce
  sugar and oxygen.
 Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants.
  Both chlorophyll and light energy need to be
  present for photosynthesis to take place, but they
  are not used up in the process.
CONCLUSION
   Photosynthesis is important for all living things
    because is a cycle that in were we are
    involuctrated so we need to protect our planet.
