Dec 13, 2019 · The role of CO 2 in photosynthesis was shown by Jean Senebier (1782), whereas the synthesis of starch was shown by Julius von Sachs (1862, 1864). However, the involvement of chlorophyll (Chl) in this process has a long history.

From then, a growing number of biochemists and physiologists attended to the process, that appeared like a "black box", in order to detect what came in and what went out of it.

Thus it contributes to the carbon cycle between the earth, the oceans, plants, and animals. It is the only method to manufacture food (organic compounds) from inorganic substances.
