Summary Introduction

To determine:

The way through which microbes are involved in photosynthesis.

Introduction:

In photosynthesis, chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun and convert it into chemical energy. This energy is further used as food or stored as sugar in the plant. Formation of glucose molecule and oxygen takes place in the presence of light. Chemical equation of photosynthesis best describes that complete glucose breakdown is a reverse of glucose formation in photosynthesis.
