Photosynthesis

The topic I chose for my paper is Photosynthesis and how it benefits us in our everyday lives. My major is Biology with a minor in business and it is very important time to find out what living plants are all about and how they affect us. Photosynthesis, what most humans don't know, is very important to our life. It is important because plants make their own food and past their energy down to humans when we eat the nutrients that the plants have in them. Without nutrients, we humans would not be able to function properly. Photosynthesis also creates fresh air so we can breathe. The main point in my research is to inform people what photosynthesis is, what's the process and how it works, and all the things that make photosynthesis …show more content…

The energy extracted today by the burning of coal and petroleum products represents sunlight energy captured and stored by photosynthesis almost 200 million years ago. A third very interesting group of bacteria synthesize sugars, not by using sunlight’s energy, but by extracting energy from inorganic chemical compounds; In a (d) deep sea vent, chemoautotrophs, such as these (e) thermophilic bacteria, capture energy from inorganic compounds to produce organic compounds.

Photosynthesis is plants taking in water, carbon dioxide, and light to make sugar and oxygen. All producers make oxygen and sugar for the secondary consumers and then the carnivores eat animals that eat the plants. This article explains how Photosynthesis happens in the Chloroplast of the plants organelle, if the Chloroplast wasn't in the plant Photosynthesis couldn't happen. If living things didn't breathe out CO2 then the plants would die and living things would have no way of getting oxygen. This article also proves that without photosynthesis, we would not live long. Photosynthesis can help us get the fresh water we need and make sure we have enough oxygen to
