Summary: We are trying to do what plants do best and use it. Plants go through a process called photosynthesis. This process takes CO2 and turns it in to good use necessary for the plant to survive. If humans could do this it is no telling what we would do.

Photosynthesis
What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis? 6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

What organelles are involved in this process? Chloroplast
List three things you learned from this article in your own words.We can make it atifical,the equation,
What impact would the absence of this process have on the biosphere?Makes more than sugar
