Solution

Photosynthesis:
Photosynthesis is a biochemical process through which an organism can produce carbohydrates from carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O) along with the help of sunlight and chlorophyll (a green pigment). This process involves the conversion of light energy into chemical energy.
$6 {CO}_{2} + 6 H_{2} O \overset{Chlorophyll & Sunlight}{\to} C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6 O_{2}$
Raw materials required for photosynthesis:
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O) are the raw materials that are required to carry out photosynthesis.
