Reactions in which energy is utilized are called endothermic reactions.

 

In Photosynthesis, green plants absorb heat energy from the sun and utilise it to make oxygen

 

The following equation takes place

 

Carbon Dioxide + Water → Glucose + Oxygen

6CO 2 (g) + 6H 2 O (l) → C 6 H 12 O 6 (aq) + 6O 2 (g)
