Step 1

Photosynthesis: 

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds, such as glucose. This process occurs in specialized organelles called chloroplasts and involves the absorption of light by pigments such as chlorophyll, which is used to power the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Photosynthesis plays a critical role in sustaining life on Earth, as it provides the primary source of energy for most living organisms.
