Summary Introduction
Introduction: The plants are the photoautotrophic organism since it produces its own food by the process of photosynthesis. The starch is the storage form of energy to the plants. It is produced by the combination of water and carbon dioxide in the presence of sunlight. This phenomenon is called photosynthesis. There are two types of photosystem involved in photosynthesis namely photosystem I and photosystem II.
