Photosynthesis in Nature

Transforms solar energy into chemical energy.

CO2 and H2O into Glucose

CO2 is carbon source and light is energy source.

Producers

Plants, Algae and other autotrophs are the producers in the ecosystem.

Autotrophs synthesize organic molecules from inorganic raw materials.

Heterotrophs acquire organic molecules from compounds made by other organisms. (consumers, decomposers)
