Organisms that make their own food from carbon dioxide and water are known as autotrophs.
The reaction of photosynthesis process is commonly written as:
6CO2 + 6H2O SunLight ------> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Carbon dioxide Water Chlorophyll Carbohydrates Oxygen
During the process of photosynthesis, six carbon dioxide molecules (reactant) and six water molecules (reactant), are converted into one sugar molecule (carbohydrate) (product) and six oxygen molecules (byproduct) in the presence of light energy (sunlight) captured by chlorophyll.
