what are the raw materials for photosynthesis

The raw materials for photosynthesis are:

1. Carbon dioxide (CO₂)– Taken from the air through small pores in leaves called stomata.
2. Water (H₂O) – Absorbed from the soil by the plant's roots.
3. Sunlight – Provides the energy needed for the process.
4. Chlorophyll – The green pigment in leaves that captures sunlight (not a material taken from outside, but necessary for the process).
