Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose molecules, releasing oxygen as a byproduct. It is essential for life on Earth as it produces oxygen, which is necessary for the respiration of most living organisms, and provides organic compounds as food for the ecosystem.
