"Photosynthesis is a chemical process that converts carbon dioxide into organic compounds creating food for plants. This process happens using energy (light, heat) from the sun."

Said simply, "Plants use light from the Sun to create sugar and oxygen. These plants in turn provide food and oxygen for animals. They can provide heat (energy) when they are burned releasing energy latent in them."
