photosynthetic organisms

Photosynthetic organisms are living things, like plants, algae, and certain bacteria, that can make their own food using sunlight. They take in sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide from the air, and through a process called photosynthesis, they convert these into energy-rich molecules like glucose and release oxygen. This process helps produce the oxygen we breathe and forms the foundation of most food chains. Photosynthetic organisms are essential for maintaining the balance of ecosystems and supporting life on Earth.
