Question

Name the site of photosynthesis in plants.

Answer 1

Photosynthesis:

Photosynthesis is the process by which autotrophic organisms synthesize carbohydrates from carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O) along with the help of sunlight and chlorophyll.

$6{\mathrm{CO}}_2+6{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\stackrel{\mathrm{Sunlight}\&\mathrm{Chlorophyll}}{\to }{\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_{12}{\mathrm{O}}_6+6{\mathrm{O}}_2$

Site of photosynthesis:

The site of photosynthesis in plants is the chloroplast. This cell organelle is found in plant cells and contains chlorophyll, a green-coloured pigment.
