Q

Photosynthesis paragraph

A

Leaves take in CO2 from air and H2O from soil and energy from sunlight. Plants use chlorophyll found in little green cell structures called chloroplasts the chloroplasts use light energy to change CO2 and H2O into food (sugar/glucose) and 02 has the sugar is turned to start h to be stored by the plant
