    $$\text{6CO}2 + \text{6H}2\text{O} + \text{Light Energy} \rightarrow \text{C}6\text{H}{12}\text{O}6 + \text{6O}2$$
    This process occurs primarily within chloroplasts, specialized organelles containing the pigment chlorophyll. Chlorophyll exhibits peak absorption in the blue-violet (approximately 430–470 nm) and red (approximately 640–670 nm) spectra. Absorption in the green spectrum leads to the characteristic reflection observed as the plant's color. Recent chrono…
