The diagram illustrates how the process of photosynthesis takes place.
Overall it can be seen that the process of photosynthesis is natural, and it has one starting and one ending point, so it is linear. The process starts with sunlight, then with absorption of carbon dioxide and water, ends with the production of oxygen and water. In general, photosynthesis occurs five stages.
Firstly, a plant receives light energy from sunlight.At the same time, carbon dioxide and water are absorbed. Carbon dioxide enters through the stomata, which are opening in the leaf’s epidermis and cuticle, while water is taken through the roots and transported through the stem to the rest of the plant. The absorbed carbon dioxide, water and sunlight then combine inside the leaf to produce sugar.
In the subsequent, a plant use produced sugar as food, which is stored in the roots. At the same time, oxygen and water vapor are released from the leaf through the stomata, a process known as transpiration. Finally, chlorophyll absorbs green wave lengths from sunlight, making plants look green.
