Photosynthesis
- Photosynthesis is the process where energy from light is used to make glucose from water and carbon dioxide.
- Light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of glucose.
- In this section, we'll talk about photosynthesis and how it is important.
Photoautotrophs
Any animal that photosynthesises is called a photoautotroph (an organism that can make food using light energy).
- photosynthesis is the same in all photoautotrophs
- this gives more (indirect) evidence for evolution from a common ancestor
