Veda Bites are swipeable micro-lessons — each one teaches exactly one idea. Here's a taste from this kit; the app has the full deck.
Sunlight becomes your food. Literally.
Photosynthesis is the process where green plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
↳ Photosynthesis stores solar energy as chemical energy in glucose — the base of almost every food chain.
Four words unlock the whole chapter.
↳ Chlorophyll traps light; chloroplasts host the reaction; stomata let gases in and out.
From sunlight to sugar in four moves.
The overall reaction needs light, chlorophyll, CO₂, and water — remove any one and photosynthesis stops.
↳ Light splits water, CO₂ is fixed into glucose, and oxygen is released.
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. Using carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight, they produce glucose and release oxyge...

18 questions laddered from warm-up to topper-level, each with an explanation. A taste:
Which of the following best defines photosynthesis?
BeginnerThe process by which green plants make their own food using carbon dioxide, water and sunlight.
Photosynthesis is how green plants make their own food using carbon dioxide, water and sunlight, releasing oxygen. Absorbing minerals is not photosynthesis, releasing energy from glucose is respiration, and losing water vapour is transpiration.
Which pigment absorbs light energy during photosynthesis?
BeginnerChlorophyll
Chlorophyll is the green pigment in chloroplasts that absorbs light energy. Starch and glucose are products, and iodine is used in the starch test.
Through which structures does carbon dioxide enter a leaf?
BeginnerStomata
Carbon dioxide diffuses into the leaf through the stomata, which are tiny pores mostly on the lower surface. Roots absorb water, the petiole holds the leaf to the stem, and xylem transports water.
A student says, 'Plants get their food from the soil through their roots.' What is wrong with this statement?
BeginnerRoots absorb water and minerals, not food; the plant makes its own food in the leaves.
Roots absorb water and dissolved minerals, not food. The plant makes its own food through photosynthesis in the leaves. This is one of the most commonly tested misconceptions.
