The raw materials of photosynthesis, water and carbon dioxide, enter the cells of the leaf, and the products of photosynthesis, sugar and oxygen, leave the leaf. Water enters the root and is transported up to the leaves through specialized plant cells known as xylem vessels.
Photosynthesis does not occur at night when there is no sunlight. Glucose is the main basic energy storage molecule. It is also the basis for many other compounds, like the cell wall, and starch that is made during photosynthesis. <br /><br /> The process of photosynthesis doesn't require glucose. Photosynthesis is the process of plants converting carbon dioxide from the air and water to usable energy (in the form of glucose), with oxygen as a waste product. The word equation for it is as follows: carbon dioxide + water -------------------------------------------> glucose + oxygen.
