Answer:

Photosynthesis is a process in which solar energy is trapped by chlorophyll to convert carbon dioxide and water to produce food in the form of glucose.

• Importance of light: Light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates
• Importance of chlorophyll: It traps the sunlight energy from the plant. This energy is used to split water molecules into hydrogen and hydroxide ions. The hydrogen ions then reduce the carbon dioxide into Glucose.
