Veda Bites are swipeable micro-lessons — each one teaches exactly one idea. Here's a taste from this kit; the app has the full deck.
Plants cook their own food.
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. It is the foundation of almost all life on Earth.
↳ Photosynthesis turns light, water, and CO₂ into food and oxygen.
Photo = light, synthesis = make.
Photosynthesis is the biochemical process where autotrophs use sunlight to synthesise glucose from carbon dioxide and water, releasing oxygen as a by-product.
↳ It is the light-driven making of food from simple raw materials.
Tiny green factories inside cells.
Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts, organelles found mainly in mesophyll cells of leaves. Chloroplasts contain the green pigment chlorophyll, which absorbs light energy.
↳ Chloroplasts are the sites; chlorophyll is the light-catcher.

17 questions laddered from warm-up to topper-level, each with an explanation. A taste:
What is the primary purpose of photosynthesis in plants?
BeginnerTo produce food (glucose) using sunlight
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their own food (glucose) using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water.
Which of the following is NOT a raw material required for photosynthesis?
BeginnerOxygen
Oxygen is a product of photosynthesis, not a raw material. The raw materials are carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.
In which organelle does photosynthesis take place?
BeginnerChloroplast
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts, which contain the green pigment chlorophyll.
What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?
IntermediateIt absorbs light energy
Chlorophyll is the pigment that absorbs light energy, which is then used to drive the reactions of photosynthesis.
