  Unit - 2.   part 〽️ 2 Fundamentals of crop physiology  Photosynthesis :-   Photosynthesis is a physio – chemical process in which green plants convert high energy to chemical energy (organic Compound sugar).  The chemical energy stored in the form of sugar, which are created are from water and carbon dioxide.   -  Photosynthesis is also used by the algae to convert the solar energy into chemical energy.  - Photosynthesis occurs when plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. - Leaves contains the microscopic cellular organalls known as chloroplasts.  - Each chloroplasts contains a green color pigment is called chlorophyll.  -  light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll molecules whereas carbon dioxide & oxygen enter through the tiny pores of stomata located in the epidermis of the leaves.  - Another by-product of photosynthesis is sugars such as glucose and fructose.  Photosynthesis is Occurs in :-    Chloroplasts are the sites of photosynth
