Photosynthesis and Respiration pg 46 Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide, water and various minerals into sugars and starches. 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + Solar energy C 6 H 12 O 6 (glucose) + 6 O 2 Takes place in the chloroplast Respiration: the process organisms use to break down food to obtain energy. C 6 H 12 O 6 (glucose) + 6 O 2 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + Energy Takes place in the mitochondria
