Photosynthesis is the process in which plants (especially green pigmented plants) obtain their food and nutrients from the sun's light energy. This process utilizes the light energy from the sun to transform water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and sugar (food).

The general equation for phosynthesis is: 6 CO2_{2} + 6H2_{2}O \rightarrow Sugar + O2_{2}
