The process by which plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to cook dinner with limited ingredients and a budget. Just like you need to gather various ingredients and combine them with heat to prepare a meal, plants collect sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to create their food through photosynthesis. In this analogy, your ingredients are like carbon dioxide and water, your budget is similar to sunlight, and the heat used to cook is akin to the energy conversion that happens during photosynthesis, resulting in a nourishing meal—much like plants creating glucose to sustain themselves.
