Photosynthesis is summarized by the chemical equation 6 C O 2 ​ + 6 H 2 ​ O + energy → C 6 ​ H 12 ​ O 6 ​ + 6 O 2 ​ . This process converts light energy into chemical energy, producing glucose and oxygen as a byproduct. It occurs in the chloroplasts of plants through light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle, contributing to food chains and oxygen levels in the atmosphere.
